Best pre-built gaming PC?


Recommended Posts

Hello! I am ignorant when it comes to building computers, prices, etc. I'm also completely new to gaming on a PC. After countless days of binge-watching LSPDFR videos on Youtube I have determined that I'd like to purchase a gaming PC. idk how to build one, unless it's easy? Of course, I'd like to play other games like Arma/DayZ, H1Z1, CS, and any other game that catches my eye.

Would like to keep it below $600, $500 would probably be ideal but I'm sure I need wiggle room.

I'm sure this has probably already been answered, but I'm off to bed now and wont be able to check all threads for a bit!

Thanks for all of the help.

Building your own PC will always get you better performance, better ability to upgrade later, and better control. It's not hard to do... if you can build LEGO sets you can build a computer.

Not everyone has the time or will to build a computer themselves. I used to do it, but these days I just want it to work and I want to use it right off the bat.

If you're looking to get a pre-built one, the easiest to get what you are looking for is to ask the people in the store, but do be sure to go to a place more focused on gaming.

Do they actually send their products in EU or further? And how do I pay something in pound if I have euros? Might sound like stupid questions, but I never bought anything that wasn't in euro.

Yep - they do. As for payment, I'm not entirely sure. It may just convert to that currency upon checkout (you can also order with amazon via them)

You will most likely not find a good gaming computer for $600, but you might be able to find a regular computer you can buy now and upgrade later(video card, power supply)

 

-edit- try looking at Steam Machines

just adding to what straypuft said if your looking to play gta v and other aaa games you need a decent computer which if u build your self since im actually gettin started building a rig myself you will need to be near the 1,000 range to play these game at decent performance cheapest graphics card worth buying now days is something like a gtx 960 4gb card or up im building one with one of the best graphics cards on the market which is a gtx980 ti and im in the 1600 range ..so good luck one of the  hardest parts to building a computer is finding the right prices for the specs you want

Thanks for the help everybody. I live in US but will check out those websites.

idk why but I was under the impression that I would be able to get a solid (of course not extremely solid lol) PC around that price range. I see videos on youtube with PC builds for under $X.

Sorry for late response.

Go to the used market then.
You also have to factor in that monitors, OS, mouse & keyboard usually aren't factored into the prices they give.
