Best Pre-Built/Build to Order PC under $600

[Choochie]

just as the title says. On a budget (aren't we all) and wanting a PC that can play Dark Souls 2, League of Legends (Maxed), and maybe Dragon Age Inquisition when it comes out. Any help would be greatly appreciated! I understand a PC at that price won't be able to play most new games coming out but I just want something that will last for a few years.

You won't get much at max settings that price prebuilt, they generally cost more.

I was thinking about this one http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16883227537 but the problem half of the reviews are really good saying everyhting is perfect and the other half is saying its trash so idk

[_I_]

r7 280 will not max lol

the build has a msi m-atx mobo which is a nono (all are 700 chipsets designed for aii/pii cpus)
and possibe fire hazards

Thank you so much for the warning! I might be able to go over my budget a bit but it would definitely need to be under $700

pick up one of these
DELL i3847-4461BK Desktop PC Intel Core i3 4150 $445
http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16883156235

and add a good gpu
ZOTAC ZT-70603-10M GeForce GTX 750 Ti 1GB $140
http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16814500348&cm_re=gtx_750_ti-_-14-500-348-_-Product

750ti will be fine wth the stock oem psu

If you overclock, take a look at this.
Just OC the CPU and you can sure max all the settings of the current games. :)

You can change the SSD to HDD, whichever you like.

Everyone and their "this is not good for gaming" seriously? He doesn't want to do heavy gaming, newegg ships to Australia, the graphics card and i3 and 8gb ram will handle the games he wants.

if he was in au, the newegg link would look like

I do live in the U.S. and Most of my free time is spent gaming and stuff but I don't really have an interest in most big titles.

[Choochie]

how easy would it be to switch the gpu in the dell?

If you really want to buy pre-made then I would say put at least $100 more into build to account the assembly costs and higher prices on parts.
