Hi there!
I've read the above computers and components thing and still i do NOT understand so if this is in the wrong section or not allowed sorry I need help and i am NOT computed savvy thank you.
It's completely ok to not be computer savvy, the important thing is to just know the basics about computers and how to take care of it so any computer can work to become a decent "gaming" computer.
I've been posting about everywhere trying to get advice and help on buying a gaming PC. So far no luck and everyone is saying avoid cyberpcs and ibuypower. It would really help if someone who already owns a pc that WORKS with the game would respond and keep in mind i am NOT interested in building a pc or having someone build it. Where I live the shops are either repair or over charge for simple things or bs you and I don't have time for that.
I know it's very frustrating, but I'm sure we can get you a good computer running that's prebuilt. It's definitely not impossible. My computer is considered "high-end" and works with almost all settings maxed (I usually keep them medium to high in order to make sure my game doesn't lag after playing with a file for a very, very long time though), and I only spent $1010 on it. You're not going to have to build it, but you can customize it. I recommend HP for that. Let me give you some examples.
My budget is about $1,200 at the most.
>It must be atleast 1-2TB and have Nvidia 770 graphics card.
>About 16gbs of ram and lastly OS Windows 8.1.
>I am hearing Alienwear is aweful due to it being companied with Dell. **Alienware isn't so bad, just very expensive for something you could likely get from another computer manufacturer**
>Asus is another brand I see but i have no idea of its rep I know of a popular youtuber who does have this brand though.
Anyways if you can help me I'd like some good advice maybe expierence with your own PC that you have?. The more I look the more fustrated I am. Like i said my budget is a little over $1,200. Also whats the difference between a gaming pc and a regular one??.
A "gaming" PC is usually set up to handle high graphics, multi-tasking, etc. a regular computer is usually just set up to do minimum things (like browsing the web, watching videos, maybe doing some low quality games). A "Gaming" PC is usually a term that someone uses for a computer that's built for really high quality games (like Skyrim, The Witcher, some First Person Shooters, etc). That same computer could also just be referred to as a "High-End" PC which can do a lot of things.
Serious answers please because this is my money I am going to spend and I don't want to waste it on a crappy PC that'll have to be fixed a few months later.Also if you could recommend some good moniter brands that would be great as well. It must be adjustable, 27" and buit in speakers. Please if you can provide links where to buy the pc and moniter I'd like that was well and as stated I am not interested in building one so mentioning that is useless because I am set on buying one and have the money for it.
Absolutely! I'll do my best to find you some good PCs.
Sorry about breaking up your post. I just needed to make sure I covered everything. Let's take a look at a few good computers for you - don't rule out any computer just yet, as sometimes you'd be surprised.
Also I noticed your Specs are a little restrictive. It will be hard to find a pre-built computer with EXACTLY those specifications, but if you trust me I won't let you spend money on a computer that won't work! I'll get you comparable specs on a pre-built (If I can't find the original ones you want).
Ok, so here we go, I'll start with HP because my
baby er computer is an HP, and, as I've said before, I got it for a great price with great specs.
Ok, I think I've found one:
http://www.shopping.hp.com/en_US/home-office/-/products/Desktops/HP-ENVY/E6S61AV?HP-ENVY-700-230qe-Desktop-PCThis is an Envy, you'll have to customize it from HP's website, but you can get exactly the specifications that you want on it.
To Customize it to the most efficient setup:
-The Processor is fine, no need to pick the other one.
-Warranty is up to you.
-Graphics card: Do either this option "2GB Nvidia GeForce GTX 645[DVI,DP,HDMI,DVI to VGA Dongle]" (for the price of $179 extra dollars - recommended) or "2GB AMD Radeon R9 270 [2xDVI, HDMI, DP, DVI to VGA adapter]" (for the price of $274 extra dollars on top of the computer).
-You can leave it at twelve or up it to 16 if you really, really want 16. However, that's money you could be putting into your monitor. It's really up to you, my computer runs the game just fine with 8gigs, and you'll have 2gigs dedicated to graphics cards anyway if you choose the one of the graphics cards I recommended you choose between above. You did specify that you wanted 16, so the option is there.
-Pick your monitor (you can go more expensive here if you left the RAM at 12 and the graphics card as the NVidia).
-The harddrive that comes with it has 2Tbytes
The next important thing is a little ways down, make sure you change your power supply to the bigger one. That will ensure longevity and it's only $30. Definitely worth it.
-The rest is just fluff, if you want a printer or speakers or anything - there is where you get it. Keep in mind that a computer from HP ALWAYS comes with a mouse and keyboard included. They offer you other mice and keyboards, but you don't have to get them, that's all up to you.
This was just one computer, but you can likely do the same with any others from HP. That's why I like them, is you can customize it to your likings without necessarily needing to "build" your own or have someone else do it.
Let me keep looking. I'll post this for now so you can see and post some more when I find a few others. I'll even look through Alienware to see if they've got something.
