Hell if I know what pre-built brands are worth a shit though (up to now I've just been stuck with hand-me-down Dells and HPs), or even what websites would be trustworthy to order from (said hand-me-downs typically came from Wal-Mart or Best Buy in-store).

I know that building your own PC can be cheaper and better because you're choosing what goes in there, but I don't know the first thing about putting one together and would rather not risk a situation where I spent hundreds of dollars on a part I then proceeded to either break accidentally, or find out too late just isn't compatible with other parts I bought.

So this is where you come in CE, I figure some of you know better about what brands/sites/options are worth dealing with and would ask for your recommendations. I don't really need some massive beast of a machine with bleeding edge parts though, as long as it can play games from at least 2015 at medium or so settings, I'd be content, and I'd have to know what prices to expect before I can start weighing them. (Only other thing I can think of is that I would vastly prefer a desktop over any other alternatives.)

I expect there might be further questions from you folks as I'm probably forgetting something, and I *know* I'm ignorant on the subject overall so I may not even be asking the right questions to begin with.
