Build an Intel Quad Core Gaming Computer with Budget $302.92

Share on Google Plus
Today we are going to build another gaming computer, and it is powered by Intel Quad Core Processor this is a bit more powerful than our first build. Choosing the best hardware but cheap for this build in no easy, I did a lot of research on the cheapest components for this build, yet cheapest but really powerful in terms of gaming.

I also want a 2GB Graphics Card for this custom build gaming computer, sounds expensive right? but I will give you the cheapest but can handle heavy games, like MMO's and FPS online games.

A 4GB RAM is also needed for this build to complete it's gaming performance, based from my experience in online gaming, 2GB of RAM will give you enough boost to play mid range fantasy online games, but to make sure that the game will avoid such a bit of lag when using teleport or visiting a huge market place in online game we will use 4GB of RAM for this build.

For the hard drive we will only use a 500GB HDD for this build, it is also up to you if you want a Terabyte HDD for this build. My main goal for this build is to give you an idea on how to build a cheap gaming computer, yet can deliver a powerful performance in gaming world.
