Need input on parts for my new rig
I'm in need of a new desktop, since my current one hasn't been updated for about 4 years. I am only interested in whats actually inside the case and the case itself. I'm not very savvy with computers thesedays, and therefore I was hoping somebody could help suggest some components which would build a full PC for around $400 USD. The games I'm playing right now are LoL and Guild Wars 2 so the PC doesn't have to be anything top-notch, but I am unsure of what games I may purchase in the future so some speed would be nice.
Thanks for any help.
tldr: suggest parts for a pc with a budget of around $400.

So you're totally okay with building a computer from a pile of parts if you have to?
...because a self-built computer cannot beat the price of prebuilt desktops, but prebuits don't have gaming grade video cards.[/quote]
I'm sorry I wasn't aware there was an expert on this site.
[quote=HastyHeist]$400? lmao the latest processor almost costs that much. I'd get a laptop with an i3 processor or something.[/quote]

there is very little benefit in going out and MAKING a $400 pc.
Its faster to just buy at that price as you wont really be saving that much $.
Buy a desktop with a decent processor (3rd gen intel i5 or better) and buy a separate gpu for like $70-200.
