Could someone make me a PC build for a budget of $600-$700.

THIS PC MUST BE ABLE TO PLAY PC GAMES, ESPECIALLY DAYZ

Recommended requirements for playing DayZ:
OS: Windows 7 SP1
Processor: Intel Core i5-2300 or AMD Phenom II X4 940 or better
Memory: 4 GB RAM
Graphics: NVIDIA GeForce GTX 560 or AMD Radeon HD 7750 with 1 GB VRAM or better
DirectX: Version 9.0c
Hard Drive: 14 GB available space
Sound Card: DirectX-compatible

I already have a keyboard, monitor, and mouse, so do not include this in the budget.

For that price, please look elsewhere. Would you be willing to build your own PC?
Also, if you use Linux you are limited to games that you can play.

yeah I would be able to build my own PC but I would rather buy one as a whole so I don't have to make it myself (unexperienced).

I am also a PC noob so I am new to this stuff. Just looking for the perfect PC to game on. Do you possible suggest an Alienware desktop?

Memory: 4 GB RAM
Graphics: NVIDIA GeForce GTX 560 or AMD Radeon HD 7750 with 1 GB VRAM or better

Gods no! Don't get Alienware. That's just overpriced because you're buying a brand name. But really, build it yourself. You only need the experience of putting stuff together. It even tells you where to put it on the mother board. It clicks into place, almost like legos. No soldering or programming needed.

Plus, you'll get a better rig for your price because it cuts out the brand name and labor costs. Allows you to spend more on better parts.

oh really? in that case could you pick some parts out for me? Just the desktop itself, I have all the accessories like the keyboard, mouse, and monitor. My budget is $600-$700.

I want a strong computer overall, but DayZ is what I want to play the most
