can you recommend a desktop pc that will play COH for under $500?
I will assume you have someone who can build a system for you - you can add $25 or so for shipping and the Foxconn AM3 motherboard is cheaper if you like:

Don't forget to add in the cost of the OS - If the laptop had an OEM copy installed that isn't transferrable to the new machine. Other software probably can be.
You will also need a keyboard and mouse if you weren't connecting ones to the laptop.

My "Gaming" laptop fell off its cooling pad and just smashed to the ground. The display is totally gone and I have to buy a new one.
This laptop overheats like crazy anyways so I want to just junk it and get a desktop.
Can anyone recommend a desktop I can get for under $500?
I want to buy a big whopper screen so need to set aside a good $300 for that, so my budget on the computer itself is $500
thanks
