With the advent of new game releases, demand for gaming pc has gone high. But running the latest games on your pc requires some serious hardware backup for enjoying the game at its best. You might be wondering what could be the best configuration for a Gaming PC. Here is a guide to build a decent gaming pc on a limited budget.

With the price of computer hardware becoming low from 2010, it is possible to build a decent gaming pc at a really low price point. So here's what we have for those on a tight budget.

For a gaming PC, the Athlon II X3 440 CPU could be a very good choice. This is a triple-core CPU and the performance is truly superb. In fact, it is hard to get such an outstanding performance at such a low price point. A Gigabyte GA-MA74GM-S2 motherboard is the perfect choice with this CPU. Here you can address up to 8GB of DDR2 1066 memory. Since memory prices is very high, you can go with just one 2GB stick of Kingston HyperX for the time being and later go for higher memory cards. For more help about this, you can talk to a computer support service provider.

A Video card is a must for a gaming PC. You can go for the Radeon HD 5670 which comes with excellent features. In the HD 5670, you will get DirectX 11 and Eyefinity support. In addition, its improved video streaming and lesser power consumption make it truly alluring. Although, this is a bit slower than its predecessor HD 4770 but definitely can offer a modest gaming experience.


When it comes to hard disk, Seagate's 7200-rpm, 500GB drive could be a very good choice for a tight budget. In fact, 500 GB could be a quite enough for gaming and music. There are also several other 7200-rpm model from various renowned brands such as Hitachi, Seagate, and Western Digital, etc.

Now as far as the case is concerned, you can opt from major brands like Cooler master, i-ball etc… So in a limited budget, you can get a decent gaming pc which can play most of the latest games and you always have the room to expand or change the hardware whenever you get the mullah to spend on it. Happy Gaming!!
