That's only because it can be pirated. >_> I think if piracy didn't exist; Buying software for that much is in a way, reasonable.

Besides, if you know a student, you can get w7 home premium for anywhere as low as 30USD. Full install copy for that little. Colleges around sell copies of windows much cheaper, by far.

| This is not a conversation about piracy. I would not recommend anyone who's doing their first build to start pirating their OS. Otherwise, I would have just said to do whatever the hell they wanted in the way of windows 7.

1. TF2 does not have very high requirements at all. My old piece of shit could run it, a new piece of shit could max it.
2. We're going to need a budget. You could be looking to spend $500 and we could give you an $800 build, or you could be willing to spend $800 and we give you something for $500 that dissatisfies you.
3. Like kls said, we also need to know what is included. Are you planning on reusing monitor/mouse/keyboard/etc.? Do you want us to include an optical drive?
4. Do you need a guide or do you think you know what to do?
Also, what are some of the other games you'll be playing? We'll need to make sure it meets specifications of the most powerful one. | Just me. | You're really not the only one, you might be the most recent, but there are tons more. CBA, but if I wanted to I could find at least a dozen threads where people say "BUILD ME A COMPUTER TO PLAY TF2!"

Not every country has strict anti-piracy laws...

Why bother buying Window 7 for $100 when you can buy it for $30?

| I'm going to buy windows 7. Don't know any students who are getting it for $30 and I'm not going to pirate. Also my budget is around $600

Perfect. See my post on the first page. But, don't expect to get it 600$, monitor in all.

Oh, wat? It was only yesterday, so don't kill me. I'm finding something else.
I edited it. I think that's a pretty good PC for the money. Most reviews on the Athlon II x3 445 say it's pretty nice, one even called it "A three headed dragon". I did my homework on this one.

| I think this is a better GPU at that price. The processor Phox found is a really good deal imo, but the case is ugly; this is better looking (imo) and 5$ less, although its somewhat... ostentatious. This is considerably cheaper and more stylish, without looking ridiculous.

Pho/x/ thinks everyone have a drill at their house and prepared to spend countless hour modding a shitty case, painting it to look somewhere decent to cover up the buyer remorse.
Seriously guise, $60 for a Antec 300?
