Q. Im a noob when it comes to computers, so i need some help with finding a good one.
Im only use my computer for gaming, besides from browsing the web and watching videos online.
Some games that i am or will be playing:
Battlefield 3
Medal of honor: warfighter
Far cry 3
Minecraft :3
Dishonored
The price should be around 1000 euro.
PS: how is the performance of an intel core i5 3350p and how is the nvidia geforce gtx 660?

A. The best brand of gaming computer in my opinion is probably AlienWare. They can ship to a pre-built computer or you can customize your order and they will build it for you. They use the latest in gaming "everything" so you would be best buying one of those.
That said they are not cheap. 800-1500 for one of their towers. Personal experience leads me to tell you to build your own computer. This sounds complex but I built mine in a day with no prior experience. You can find better deals on the parts you need so its cheaper and and its can be useful later if one of said parts break. Plus it's a lot of fun. Concerning your other questions, I do not know how the Intel core is because I use a third party. And nvidia is an excellent company. I forget what card I bought but the one I use had it now for a couple years and my games still run great.
Forgot to mention. My price are American dollars. I don't know the ratio for money. And if you do decide to build a computer buy from www.newegg.com

Need help building a gaming computer.?
Q. I'm new at this and I want to know what to look for in a tower. I want to learn what brands are good, bad, gb, GHz, good graphic cards, bad graphic cards, etc. Basically all the stuff i need to know about. And also it'll be nice if i see an example of a descent $600 build compared to a good build. Ty
My email is phixfifofum@yahoo.com if anything :D

A. You're not going to get a full-fledged gaming computer for $600 unless you build one yourself.
As to brands... well, there are a myriad of brands floating around. Just read the reviews first and that'll help give you an idea of how good or bad they are.
Looking for a computer, here are some suggestions as to components:
Processor: For gaming (and just about everything else), Intel is best, but AMD also gives you quite a bit of power for cheaper if you know what you're looking for. Generally, for gaming, I'd recommend any quad-core processor with a clock speed of 2.5GHz or higher. Dual-cores work too, but they're a bit slower, so I wouldn't recommend them all that much. If you do get a dual-core though, you probably want one that's 2.8GHz or higher. As I said before, Intel is usually the better brand when it comes to performance, but AMD is cheaper.
Graphics cards: Light to medium gaming, I'd get something like a Radeon HD 5670 or GeForce GTS 450. For heavier and hardcore gaming, the majority of the Radeon HD 6000 series would work out, as would the Radeon HD 5770 or better. Also for heavy gaming, the GeForce GTX 460 and higher, plus the GTX 500 series, would be quite good as well, but more expensive. The best cards on the market can go for as much as $900, which won't fit your budget.
Hard drive: SSDs (Solid state drives) are the fastest, but usually smaller and more expensive. Regular HDDs (Hard disk drives) are somewhat less reliable, but most still last you a good couple years and they can come in sizes up to 3TB (3000GB). Really, for general gaming purposes, a 7200rpm 1TB drive would work. The higher the RPM, the better the performance, but it'll probably wear out more quickly.
Memory: Try to aim for 4GB of DDR3. For gaming, I'd get a minimum of 3GB. 6GB would be more preferable.
Power supply: For the above items, I'd suggest a 650 or 750 watt power supply to be able to support the more power-consuming hardware like the graphics cards.
In summary, you can get a lot of performance if you're willing to fork over the cash, but as a baseline to go on, for moderate gaming on a budget:
Generally any quad-core processor, 2.5GHz or higher, preferably Intel for better performance (starting at about $160 at 2.5GHz for a Core 2 Quad, more if getting an i5/i7).
AMD (preferably the Phenom II X4 line, $120ish starting price at 2.8GHz) for less bite out of the wallet.
For graphics, a Radeon HD 5670 ($95) is good for moderate gaming, but the 5770, for $40 more, can handle heavier gaming. GeForce GTS 450 ($120) is in between the 5670 and 5770 in terms of both price and performance.
For hard drive, for general gaming you want around 500GB at 7200rpm at minimum. More and faster is better, but more expensive.
For RAM, 4GB of DDR3 is reccommended, the more the better.
For power supplies, the absolute minimum I would go with the graphics card mentioned above is 500 watts, but more is better (and more expensive).
Generally, the faster and more powerful the hardware is, the more you're going to spend.
Hopefully this helped.
