Re: Is an investment possible? Budget box - Profitable??

There isn't much way to make a profit in computer equipment. It isn't an investment, there isn't much resale value in computers/parts and the value drops drastically the moment you take the new part out of the box.
One can make some money charging a reasonable fee for tailor building systems for people and/or providing long term support.

Could you fool someone into paying you $1500 for a used machine that originally cost you 1k? Possibly, but it isn't really a just way to deal with people.

It sounds like you are wanting to work your way up to a level of machine that is out of your price range right now.
You really don't need to spend 2k to get a very nice machine and might be able to get the kind of performance you need within your present budget.
What was your ultimate goal as to the games you want to build for and the monitor resolution you want to run them at?
