Good and affordable gaming desktop?

If you are somewhat into gaming then there will come a time when you would be interested in playing the more graphically demanding games today, like what I experienced, before, I only have a 9600GT and then I upgraded it to a GTX 560 so that I could play all games on max settings on 1600 x 900 resolution ( never been happier =P ). So my advise to you, based on my experience is for you to get an affordable GAMING PC that can at least play all games on high settings so that it is somewhat a bit futureproof for upcoming games ( about after 2 years it would still be good for gaming). AND most importantly, building it yourself is better because it is a bit cheaper and your build would be more balanced compared to those more expensive pre-built PCs out on the market.

If you cannot build it yourself, you can have someone else build it for you ( a friend or a local computer shop). For around $800, you could actually already get a decent GAMING PC, here is an example: Intel Core i3-2120 Sandy Bridge 3.3GHz LGA 1155 65W Dual-Core Desktop Processor Intel HD Graphics 2000 BX80623I32120 - $125 GIGABYTE GA-H61M-DS2 LGA 1155 Intel H61 Micro ATX Intel Motherboard - $55 ($45 after rebate) G.

I cant really gove you an answer,but what I can give you is a way to a solution, that is you have to find the anglde that you relate to or peaks your interest. A good paper is one that people get drawn into because it reaches them ln some way.As for me WW11 to me, I think of the holocaust and the effect it had on the survivors, their families and those who stood by and did nothing until it was too late.
