Best prebuilt gaming PC which one should I buy? [discussion]

66 Upvotes

I’m looking to grab a prebuilt gaming PC soon and I’m getting overwhelmed by all the CPU/GPU combos and brand options.

For people who’ve bought a prebuilt recently, what would you recommend if I want great gaming performance, good temps/noise, and strong value for the money? I play a mix of competitive stuff and newer AAA games, and I’d love something that’s smooth at 1440p (and maybe 4K later).

Budget $1500 - $2000

thanks

Greetings all,

Lately, we've been having a bit of an issue with certain users being sent personal messages from a user bypassing a ban put in place by myself. This person has established multiple scam companies and has been the author of multiple scams to our users. My objective in this thread is to warn you guys in order not to fall into this trap.

There is a website named under this same subreddit (www.suggestapc.com). This is a scam website. You WILL be scammed if you purchase anything from this website. The owner of this webpage is bypassing our bans by sending personal messages to users who post here. If you receive a personal message regarding the purchase of a PC, head to the Discord server and ask for help there, first. We are in no way affiliated to such website and have no intentions to do so.

I will publicly name the person who is currently sending messages to our users. /u/Java-the-Slut, or previously /u/0833Josh, /u/kaio37k. You've been reported to the Reddit admins. Please take this as a warning to suspend this activity.

As a final note, I apologize to you, the users for this "drama". The subreddit will continue creating new rules and methods in order to better safeguard our users.

I encourage all users to join the Discord for any assistance.

Have a nice day,

$800 [Suggestion]: My son (13) had his heart set on a gaming pc. He saved all Xmas, bday, and chore money for over 2 years. He didn’t factor in sales tax so he’s short for the one he wants the most. Is there one you guys can recommend that’s comparable?

He has $870 total. I’ve included two links cause the other he wanted is sold out, so I’ve added that link as well.

$1200 [Suggestion] Best (cheapest) prebuilt for 3060 ti?

32 Upvotes

I’m looking to upgrade my current pc by carrying parts over from a prebuilt into my own build. I’m really just looking for a 3060ti and possibly a cheap 5600x. Also I don’t mind waiting for stock, I rather get as close to msrp as possible. I know a bit about computers and scouring for parts but noticing in the realm of prebuilts!

[ITG] an $850 pc

https://www.costco.com/msi-codex-z-gaming-desktop---amd-ryzen-5-3600---geforce-gtx-1660-ti-.product.100701348.html

This prebuilt has basically everything I’m looking for, and it seems pretty cheap compared to other builds with the same cpu, gpu and ram. However, my only possible issue is that it uses AMD’s A320 motherboard, and some of the reviews said that it would just freeze up or crash a lot. Will the A320 motherboard be a problem? I’m planning on just doing a bit of casual gaming, nothing intensive. Also, is it just worth it overall, or are there other prebuilts that have better parts for $850? Thanks for the help!

I'm looking for a new PC, pre-built, that I can play most modern games for around $800

30 Upvotes

My current PC is 6 years old, and I'm pretty sure is on its last legs. It had a built in graphics card, like a Radeon R7 or something I believe. It can play some games on Steam, but nothing too intensive or 3D. Games like Stardew Valley work okay, but there are others I really want to play.

I've been saving up money, and I have about $800 to play with. Ideally I want something that will last a lot longer, and allow me to play more games on Steam. I don't care about having all settings on ultra. As long as it plays fine on normal graphics, that would be okay. As far as games I play, I am mostly into strategy/sim games. Things like Total War and such would be the games I would want to be able to run well enough.

So can anyone recommend me something you think would work for me?

[Discussion] Beware of Cyberpowerpc

29 Upvotes

I've now gone through 2 Cyberpowerpc's in a week.

First was an AMD 3700x + 6700xt, second an Intel with a Gigabyte 3070. Both times, the PC crashed to a black screen when the GPU was stressed. Temps were fine, cables with connected well, I even replaced the PSU with an RM850X to no avail. Edited the registry TDR timer, NOTHING works.

We also isolated other factors, and did literally every troubleshooting step online.

So I'm returning the PC to Best Buy and I'll spend the $2k somewhere that actually builds the PCs right/build it myself. This was absurd.

Please be aware that you could be wasting your money on their builds.

[Discussion] Digital Storm and MainGear gaming PCs are basically scams. All of their PCs are complete rip-offs.

29 Upvotes

They sell the most overpriced PCs I have ever seen. For example, this $750 MainGear Vybe does not even have a dedicated graphics card! For $750 you can buy a prebuilt PC with GTX 1650 SUPER or RX 580 graphics cards elsewhere.

Similarly, this $700 Digital Storm Lynx PC only has an integrated graphics card (in layman's terms: a garbage card).

This $1000 Digital Storm PC features only a GTX 1650 non-Super (1650 is worse than 1650 Super) and 8GB RAM. While for $1000 you can buy this gaming PC on Bestbuy with an RTX 2060 SUPER and 16GB RAM.

$2000 [SUGGESTION] Looking for a good place to buy a 3080 equipped gaming PC for a fair price.

24 Upvotes

What is the best place to get a good deal on a gaming PC with a RTX 3080 for around 2K?

The 3080 seems to finally be coming available at major prebuilt PC retailers. I’m wondering who to order from and what availability there is. I saw some prebuilt PCs from Alienware with the 3080, but they are asking an insane $5000 for them! What a rip off! I’ve heard about other PC makers like Origin and HP Omen, but I’m not sure if they are reasonably priced either. I’ve seen systems from IBUYPOWER and CYBERPOWER on their web sites that are around $2000 with the 3080, but I’ve heard mixed word on their work. I’ve seen systems from a company called ABS on Newegg for around $2000 with the 3080. Though they are currently unavailable. I’m not really familiar with the company, but they seem to be priced fairly

So, my question is: what are my best options to get a 3080 equipped system for around $2000? I don’t want to get ripped off paying around 3000 or more like I’ve seen some idiots out there trying to push for these new systems.

I'd really appreciate some suggestions for a desktop PC for him before parting with the money. We've saved up a £1000 budget to upgrade his work from home computer but given the pandemic less would be better.

He doesn't do much heavy computing beyond video calls, some database stuff and a bit of photo editing.

  • He's decided he'd like a good I5 or I7 processer.

  • A large SSD

Aesthetics are not a concern and nether is size.

$1000 [Discussion] CyberPowerPC has a very good deal right now for $1000: RTX 3070 GPU, Wireless AC, 16GB DDR4 Memory, Ryzen 5 3600 CPU, 500GB SSD

23 Upvotes

The total price is $1035 with code SPRING0410: http://www.cyberpowerpc.com/saved/1MYEBR

  • This is the best gaming PC for a $1000 budget, it comes with the latest RTX 3070 GPU.

  • For those who don't know, you can install and use Windows 10 for free using a USB: https://www.microsoft.com/en-us/software-download/windows10

  • You don't need to upgrade anything in this build. Those parts already give you the best bang for your bucks. If you change any parts, the system may become overpriced.

[Suggestion] What's the Lowest-End PC that Will Get Me through the 9th Console Generation?

22 Upvotes

Hi all,

I'd like to get a PC for this console generation, but I'm used to consoles and don't know much about PC gaming, so I thought I'd go to Reddit.

I'm looking for a PC at the lowest possible price point that will get me through the PS5 era. I don't really care about resolution or amazing performance, I'd just like access to whatever new games come out. Two things I'd really like:

  1. For the next five-odd years, being able to play next-gen AAA games in fullscreen in at least 720p without serious framerate drops -- 25-30 fps is fine. If graphical settings are low, that's fine.

  2. Being able to run Citra, the 3DS emulator, well enough for games to be playable.

I don't have a specific price point, just whatever the lowest ends up being for what I'm looking for.

Also, would the Steam Deck that was announced today serve this purpose? I'm liking the price point and convenience factor, but am unsure if the low-ish GPU and CPU will be able to play next-gen games for the long haul.

[Discussion] Regarding recent drama! (Pt. 2)

22 Upvotes

Greetings everyone,

Previous post here.

After accumulating as much evidence as possible, I've taken the decision of taking down mod /u/0833Josh (for his recent activities) as well as /u/kaio37k (suspicion of alternate account, mod inactivity). I've also requested ownership of the subreddit to /u/TimeTravellerSmith.


Going forward, I will keep the sub alive, truth be told, there's not much activity going on it mod-wise. Leaving threads unlocked and checking mod-mail every once in a while is enough to keep the subreddit working. I apologize for any problem this may have caused to any user of the subreddit. I truly hope that this can continue being a pure-prebuilt community for the users who fit this category.

All links regarding the "official suggestapc" website will hereby be banned, and all future posts will be a bannable offense. Please refrain from linking the website. It stands to say that we have no affiliation with that website or our old moderators.


Not much to say now, perhaps the reputation of the sub is tarnished, perhaps it is not. That is not my call to make at the moment, what I do believe is in redemption. In any form I took part of these activities, and now that I was made aware I made my call. As mentioned in my last post, my only wish is for this to become a striving community for prebuilt PC's.

Any thoughts?

Thanks,

Roth
