So I'm kind of new to PC gaming I usually play my Xbox 360 but I found a pretty fun game that I played at a friends house. Just wondering if either of these computers are worth buying for games. (I don't have much cash to spend on a computer atm, I'm out of work.)

Computer 1:

Compaq Presario Desktop
AMD Athlon II 160u Processor
Windows 7 Premium
4GB Memory
500GB Hard drive
(And a recommended graphics card preferably in the $0-$65.00 range)

The game I want to play is Genesis A.D.

Computer 2:

HP Pavilion Desktop with VISION Technology from AMD-Premium
AMD Athlon II 635 Quadcore Processor
Windows 7 Premium
6GB Memory
750GB Hard Drive
(And a recommended graphics card preferably in the $0-$65.00 range)

the cpu is computer one will let you down. Of the choices, 2 would be your best option. Concerning video, the motherboard in pc 2 will likely have better video than a $65 video card can give you. It will take a little more than 65 to get a good card.

2 is more expensive than 1,so i choose 2

If you want to buy a PC for gaming then you can purchase a computer with graphics card, 4 GB RAM and 500 GB Hard disk. It is better for your gaming PC.

nice, i use a Athlon II X3 450.

#2 is better, get that one. and maybe a

looks good, 50 bucks.

or

10 bucks off w/ code.

I think 2 is better. You should go for computer 2. It's much better than 1.

2nd option
