Budget is $800 or hopefully cheaper. No need kb, mouse, gpu and monitor.
Need os.

Main Usage: mainly for watching shows, torrenting and playing dota2 max in 1680x1050. Also using Firefox and dota2 together to not lag the com

Planning to upgrade in future 8-9 months time to much better specs. Current com (quad core gs9600 gpu) broke down so need to get a slightly better one to tong for awhile till I upgrade.

Thanks in advance guys

Thanks! I do not need the gpu, have a gtx650 palit as a gift. Should I use the $122 to get a better processor?
