My PC is 1GB ram and x300 graphics card with 820 pentium d processor  and can run blockland at reasonable setting. You could possibly afford something like mine currently but it wouldn't be a very good investment for the future.

well about how much money does that computer cost?

Just build it custom, lot less expensive IMO, I spend about $500-600 total and can play most games at a reasonable setting. I do need a new processor though so add about 60 more on top of that.

Look on ebay? those things cost over $500 and i only got $230

That's about how much my graphics card costs

Im not really sure. My dad bought it about 5 years ago before I was into gaming or anything. But it probobly is only about $200 at the most. I don't think its sold by retail anymore though.

Well it has 2.0Ghz, 1.25 of RAM, 160Gb hardrive, and the company is Asus
My computer was made by asus!

I have always wanted a Gaming computer. Might have less lag and A better Video card.
My computer has 3 RAM.

I don't know I have never tried :P

Asus
I have Asus, i can't even watch Youtube videos and play BL without lag.
I have 6.0 Ghz, 7.45RAM.

That computer manufacturer must be horrible, because those look like some good stats. Unless your running an older, slower version of windows.

Quite honestly, I was able to build my system for under $700.

Internals:
1x - AMD Athlon II X4 quadcore CPU
2x - 160 GB 3Gb/s  Western Digital Blue HDD (in RAID)
1x ATI 5750 Sapphire Vapor-X graphics card
2x - 2GB DDR3 1333 ram (4GB total)
1x - Gigabyte UD3 motherboard
1x - Antec 900 case
1x - 350W Antec power supply.

That's an okay computer. It's not the best for gaming lol

It will usually run most games I throw at it.  It's not the best, but you can't beat a quadcore for $100 in terms of affordability.  It runs well, and it's upgradeable (socket AM3).

The only problem(s) i have with my computer is that I need more RAM (DDR3 is really hard to find, and I'm still saving up to buy it online) I need a new or another Graphics card (my Gtx 260 is fine but I would like a more powerful card, or another GTX 260.) and possibly another hardrive (This is not one I really want, but it would be kind of nice.)

Yeah, it would be awesome to Crossfire two 5750s, but I'd need a bigger power supple.
