I'm looking for a computer that could handle MC at high settings and games like Call of Duty on PC on medium settings.

Try to get as Cheap as possible as I am on low budget ATM.

Anything less than this and we will have to probably cut down to an APU which would probably still work ok but not be nearly as powerful.
