Looking for Gaming Computer???

[maciemurrane]

Hello, im currently looking fr a gaming pc and i have found a few that i think i might like but im not sure if the specs would be ok for the games i want to play.
here is the first one:
http/www.bestbuy.com/site/cyberpowerpc-gamer-ultra-desktop-amd-fx-series-16gb-memory-2tb-hard-drive-black-blue/5832053.p?id=1219165147101&skuId=5832053
here is the second one:
http/www.bestbuy.com/site/lenovo-erazer-x315-desktop-amd-a10-series-12gb-memory-2tb-hard-drive-black/8448667.p?id=1219336309740&skuId=8448667
both of these look like they'd be nice but i am new to specs and hardware and whatnot. the games i would like to be able to play are the sims 4, gta 5, skyrim, goat simulator, gmod, and still not have lag. if these computers aren't going to be enough let me now and i'll keep looking.

Avoid BestBuy or any other 'giant' retailer would be point #1.

Not sure of your location?

I'm guessing, since the two you linked are in the $600-$800 range, that's your budget?

If in doubt, refer to Game-Debate (I've already input the spec for the one tea urchin suggested (essentially you're looking for Green on all 3 categories, don't worry about hitting 10/10 for each, as that's damn near impossible within breaking the $2k if not $3k barrier).

Nice page Barty. Like that tool.

I've found it to be pretty accurate anyway. There's a bunch of features on the site for benchmarks etc, but I like the fact you can get a snapshot for a specific game.

I would not waste money on a pre-built piece of trash for gaming.

^ I would not be surprised. As a kid I was happy with a celeron.

I would also recommend building your own.
Unfortunately it is often the case that some or all of the money is coming from a parent,who demands a brand name and warranty.
It crops up here a lot.

Good point.

OP, if this is the case MemoryExpress will assemble (I think it's $40 standard) & provide a warranty. Still wouldn't help the 'brand name' point, but gets you closer.
