Well my bro wanted to go to a pro football game here, they asked if i wanted to go and i passed. So instead of going to the game i get the money instead of the ticket, so i have about $400 to spend now, I'm looking to buy the best pc i can for the $. So what do you guys think? I already have a monitor and all that crap so i have $400 to spend on just the tower. LMK what computer you think i should get, or if i should rebuild my other computer (it's a 2002 gateway) LMK what you guys think. Thanks

Go build a system, look at Tigerdirect.com or newegg and find a bare bones system you like and outfit it.

What are you wanting to do with this machine for the $500 and also do you want a monitor included in the budget or are you just looking to replace the tower?

Maybe you should just look at Dell's outlet. I think they are just the box.
