    This is not my dream this is my brothers dream well he doesn't even know about this I would really like to give him something special my mom is not too rich my dad left when we were young she has to work hard alone. I would love to give him something special. I have chosen this product because I have always dreamed about this, but dreams can be sought out later for me. I can personally tell you that he has not received many things in his life my mom is always expecting him to get good grades to become rich in the future because hers was destroyed I would really love him to receive this as a gift for all that has happened throughout his life.

    No, I built the computer for mainly when I am in college. I don't want to spend my hard-earned money when I was older, so I thought I would just buy the PC at a younger age. Did I not think about gaming when I built this? No, of course I knew it would be beneficiary to my gaming experience.


    maybe even one day I'll be able to make a business. That'll suit the computer great. :t:

    Depends on what you're planning on using it for. Just minecraft? I mean really..integrated graphics will run minecraft. This game is much more cpu intensive than anything, however. For general 1080p gaming, that gpu isn't worth it, unfortunately.
