    It is back to school time which gives retailers an excuse to have a holiday sale when there is no holiday.  It also give hardware sites like Hardware Asylum an excuse to talk about building PCs either for the family room or that new dorm you’ll be moving into in a couple weeks.  Of course in these situations money can be tight and you want to make sure you get the best bang for your buck.

    In this episode we discuss budget gaming PCs in the sub $1000 USD range.  You can build a pretty amazing machine with that kind of money which is just enough to get you decent hardware and also allow an upgrade path for future growth and a creative way to get more from your initial investment.
