   I'm sure you get these questions constantly from newbies just like me, but this seems like a well mannered forum so I figured I'd throw my questions out there. 

I'm looking for a good gaming PC that won't break $700. It doesn't need to run FSX on ultra but I want to get at least console like graphics with a good frame rate. I'm having a computer tech help me do the actual work with putting all the parts together but I'm looking to you guys for what parts to get. Any more info you need from me just go ahead and ask and I'll do my best to answer it.
