I thinking of buying a Custom Gaming off of someone on kijiji. I just want to run Skyrim and Minecraft but I don't know if I should. I never build a pc and i'm afraid i might just break it, and if you think i should'nt, is there any cheap brand pc around 350$-450$ that will at run Skyrim at least Meduim Settings?
Should I buy a custom Gaming Computer off Kijiji (Craigslist)?
If you're looking into a laptop on cragslist, go and look at it as well as bring Skyrim and run it. If it runs it well, buy it. I would stay away from the old CL because of the risk of getting a POS. I would say save your money and buy a new gaming laptop. Here's a page on the best gaming laptops

be prepared for sticker shock, but in the long run, it will pay off. I happen to own the Alienware 18 and the only thing I hate about it is the bulk to it. It plays everything i would ever want to play.
You get what you pay for. Best thing to do is buy high quality separate parts and build your own gaming pc. Wait until you have enough money, I've been waiting years to build my own gaming pc due to lack of funds. $350-450 won't get you anything worth playing games on. Maybe buy a PS4 or X-Box One for that price instead.
