If a person walked into the shop and requested a machine to play F.E.A.R. (or Doom3 or RollerCoaster Tycoon 10 or whatever) on a budget of $350 my best offer would be to let them rent time on my PC, cause you sure as hell cannot build a gaming box for that amount.
Besides, how many of these threads are just blue sky dreams anyway?
Seems like the majority of the "Help me build a machine" topics never make it beyond the pixellated stage.
