What is your PC budget when building a new PC? - SpookyZalost - May 31st, 2017

I frequently build computers that kick serious butt in the $300 to $500 range but I'm curious, what do the rest of you budget when you build your next PC, and what parts do you invest the most Cash in?

The most I've ever spent on a PC was 700. It had a decent graphics card and a good setup, but it was nothing special.

Most of the computers I've built were from old scrap parts that I put together for about 50 dollars. Tongue

see I do the same thing usually, I find that with linux as the OS, and a rather large scrap base I can build systems that perform fairly decently for very little, it's awesome.
