Buy a console and stay with it, you will enjoy PC for 5 minutes then return back to it after all the ignorant virgins get on your wick.

The budget was just shy of what I wanted to configure. It is above $900 before rebates.

Had a stab at it. Didn't include a keyboard or a mouse, nor a wifi card. Those can be found cheap. I did include the OS and a monitor.

I went with an Intel processor, as I believe Minecraft runs on a single core(?). I would have preferred to include the i5-4690. However, I didn't want to compromise on the GPU, which is a nice mid-range card. The 270x can play most games on ultra presets 1080p.

I'll knock up another configuration in a mo, if someone else doesn't contribute.

don't know what your favorite color is, but my personal is red, my friend has a build very similar pc to this and it plays everything on high to Ultra no problem.I did this all on a tablet which if you don't know pcpartpicker is terrible on a tablet. Also the case is really good for the money.
