My dad is offering to spend $400 of a computer for me. Currently I'm running a really old Inspiron 530 with XP, so I really need an upgrade. I've Frankensteined it with a GTX 550 Ti and a 2 TB hard drive.
What I need to do is find a computer which I can swap these parts into for ~$400. What I'm looking for is a computer with a processor adequate for gaming (but doesn't have to be too intense) and Windows 7 or 8.
Are there any suggestions (sans full build) in which I could find a computer with these constraints, which I can upgrade with the parts I have?
