Custom Computer under 700 help. (desktop, monitor, keyboard, mouse)

[pixa241]

Ok I am looking to build the best custom computer for under 700 dollars. All I need is the tower. I have the monitor. I just need the tower keyboard and mouse. Any ideas?

I think Utube has computer builds at different price levels; check there.

If you already have the power supply, the case is pretty easy.
Cheap prices all over Craigslist. Good cases don't wear out.

Here's one that I turned up:

I think I have the same case at my office. It was built like a battleship.

Best computer under $700 for...

Spreadsheets?
Email/Internet Browsing?
Photo/Video Production?
Video Gaming?
Great American Novel Authoring?

You'll need to narrow your point of interest in order to find your best computer.

How about you pick up this: Gigabyte GA-H61M-S1 Intel H61 Express Motherboard and Intel Core i3-2120 3.30 GHz Dual Core Processor and Galaxy GeForce GT 610 GC Video Card and Patriot Viper Xtreme 4GB Desktop Memory Module Bundle at TigerDirect.com

And 40 of these: Cooler Master R4-L2R-20AC-GP Case Fan - 120mm, Blue at TigerDirect.com

All joking aside... you'll need to pride us your usage scenario.

There is two things I would be looking for on the mobo right off the bat, SATA3 and USB3...

I would add thunderbolt to that list (if you can fit it in the budget).

Mac Mini (since it lacks a monitor)
with wireless keyboard & mouse.
