Look people, it's gonna be hard to build a cheap PC, alright?
Think about it like this:
When it comes to consoles, you're paying a pretty reasonable price for a console, controller(or two), and any possible goodies that come with it. Plug in a TV or monitor and you're good for the next couple of years.
For PC, "affordable" PC's won't always give you the best results. That's why PC's are more expensive. Sure, they can reach astonishing prices of up to $2,000, but it'll give you great performances for the years to come.
So it's really a budget thing. If you can't spare 800+ bucks for a computer, then get a console, it's more worth it than a PC the same price,
if you can spare that extra cash, then do it. it'll be worth it.
