What would you like, minimum settings minimum render distance? Are you playing singleplayer or multiplayer? Vanilla or modded? Want to do anything else on the computer?
Here are some good things to buy under 300ish. (DEPENDS WHERE YOU BUY, I GOT A GOOD DEAL FOR MINE) And ALSO, FOLLOW MY ADVICE. I had to go through it, and I wont mind helping you out. Ok, lets get going;
Graphics card - Nvidia GeForce 550 Ti ($80-120)
This graphics card has to be the BEST DEAL out there. I had a funny story with how I got mine, but all I will say is I got it for $35, and it works great.
Theres one on eBay rn for $69.99, but thats if its trusted, of course.
For the graphics card and most other things, you need a good tower. First, check if the specs you bought fits into yours, if it doesn't, buy a quick and easy $100 tower, and try that out. Remember you can always return it.
Intel Core i5-6500 ($170-200)
Core i5 is really all you need for a gaming computer, but core i7 runs modern games better.
So far, these two things could improve your FPS by ALOT, you might start getting 150-200 fps on singleplayer. (Optifine will make it smoother)
The last thing you should get is a better power supply. Check inside your computer, if you have less than 700 watt, change it.
You really need 750watt, 800 if you want to go overboard. 750s can be anywhere from $70 to $100.
Theres other specs you can always improve, but these are the absolute basic to making Minecraft run faster and better.
BEFORE YOU LOOK AWAY FROM THIS POST:
Before anything, check your computer tower. Is it dusty? If so, you might need to clean it, and if its been messy for a while, it might have permanent damage. You want to clean your computer out with an air can every 5-6 months.
Your current balance would be anywhere from, $500 at MAX, and then if you get lucky like me, $300.
This is possibly one of the most forced LISTEN TO ME posts i've seen in a good while. No need to be pushy, jeez.
Also, the 550 Ti is very old, and very low end. I would not recommend one. 750 Ti at a min, 1050 Ti if possible. You also do not need a 700-750W PSU, a 400-600W *good quality* one is a much better choice. I have a Corsair RM-750 that will happily supply oodles of power to a high end graphics card and fairly heavily OCed i7, without even spinning the fan up most of the time.
Edit: Oh, and yep, as per below, he doesn't even want to build anyway?
550 is cheap, and its still super good. I run minecraft 400-600 fps with these specs (better power supply though)
Then I can't help him lol. Good luck.
Your pairing a $200 latest CPU with a $50 GPU from years ago.
That's a plan for a waste of money build, and I would know that from my 3570k and 7770, which is a smaller gap even.
Firstly, OP said he didn't want to build, so why are you ignoring his post? Your post regardless is obnoxious and I would have to agree with Xiae, I haven't seen these listen_to_me_im_right posts in a long while.
The 750ti is a least today, and the 1050 isn't much more but quite a far amount better.

Yeah I wouldn't call it "super good" lol. You could get a GTX 750 Ti for $80 these days that would destroy it. I doubt you get 600 fps with it unless you're running low settings, and a power supply doesn't affect performance, especially since the 550 Ti would be fine on a 400w PSU lol.
That's pretty sweet, I just preordered it. I probably should've asked this first, heh, but I bought it for my nephew who wants to run shaders and stuff without lagging. It'll do that fine, but another thing he was trying to do was play ARK Survival and Astroneer but on his current rig it's so painfully slow it's unplayable; like 4 FPS lol. Think this box can do those at a frame rate that won't make you want to gouge your eyes out?

ARK should run ok, probably 30 fps at decent settings, no clue about Astroneer
Hi guys I was just wondering what type of computer should I get that would run minecraft at 100+ fps and cost 600$ or less
(DO NOT WANT TO BUILD)

Your post is talking part prices and such; OP said he has no desire to build his own. He's looking for prebuilt unbox-and-go PCs.

TO OP, if you can wait until the end of the month, this PC is the best by far for $600
