Starcraft RPG

How much would a computer that can run Starcraft 2 cost?

I am thinking of getting a new computer but i know virtually nothing about computers. I was wondering how much would a computer that will be able to run new games like Starcraft 2 cost? Thanks.

1. well if you are after palygin new games you will need a good video card either inbedded or card. you will want either a 512 mb or a 1gb card i would suggest a 512 not many if any games are requesting a 1 gig card to play them, you will want at least 4 gigs of ram to play comfertably and at least a dual copre 1.8 or higher processor i would go to www.newegg.com check prices some of their deals are great hope that helps
2. Building yourself you could get away with 500 CDN. Pre built... like over 1000 CDN. By the way, building it yourself is like building lego. Go to PC Hardware Discussion on Gamespot and tell them your budget, and they will tell you what to order. Then just look up a video or picture guide on how to do it. Always order from Newegg. It's real cheap with excellent customer service. P.S: If you have no mouse, keyboard and monitor add like 170. Good luck.
3. newegg is the place to shop but you can also check out tigerdirect.com, i use them both when im building puters for others and sometimes youll get a better deal using both sites, like the others said get you at least a 512mb video card (100$), 550 watt power supply(75$), a decient motherboard (100$) and a dual core processor(70-?) and 4 gig of ram(120$) if you are using a 32 bit operating system, if your using 64 bit vista make sure you get like 6 gigs of ram, do not buy it pre built you wont get good parts and youll pay twice as much, not unless your putting it on a credit card, in that case go to delloutlet.com and look at the xps line,
