Best prebuilt 1600$ PC

[wmackay79]

Hi, I am looking to get a new gaming PC to play games like CSGO, COD, h1z1, ark, etc... Want to be able to run games at high fps and just have great overall performance. Also I want to do 144hz gaming bc my monitor supports it. So I have been saving and now I have 1600$ to drop on a beast system. I have been looking at the digital storm vanquish 3 level 4 but I'm not sure it's my best option. What do you guys think is the best thing I can get prebuilt for 1600$? Thx!! (And please don't suggest building myself bc it's not an option for me.)

How come from the i7 to the i5?

How come from the i7 to the i5?

Because he put the saved cost from the i7 into the graphics card (he switched it for the 980 ti which is better than the standard 980)

It is a good choice, either system will do far beyond what you need it for

 

[MrKino]

because you gaming only no diffenrce expect in rendering time i can remove the ssd with 120gb one a d get the i7 sams fps except rendering and water cooler so you can overclock

OK op do you need any other help yhe prebuilt all are overpriced i mean you can't pay 1600$ for. 970
What you can do is ask someone on pcmasterace and tell them they pay for pc and ship and you pay through paypal

I configured you a desktop via CyberPowerPC.

Custom and building your own is always better than off-the-shelf.

I got a desktop from CyberPowerPC a few months ago, since I didn't have the time building.

The desktop comes with a free gaming mouse and keyboard. You can get a monitor, if you need one, cheaper elsewhere such as Amazon and Newegg. The configuration should allow you to run any game flawlessly.

If the guy is not comfortable building he will not really overclock anything, so he does not need K CPU or that MOBO.

Also i had a CyberpowerPC before, they do great stuff. Something i would recomend is to look at gaming prebuilds on NewEgg or Walmart from Cyberpower and such.

Every now and again Slickdeals has offers on HP PCs, man i swear to you, GTX970--i7 system for $800.

This is an i5 system for $800 with GTX 750ti, you can sell it and get a 980TI

Here's a i7 system

As you don't want to build it and want it built. You're getting some good ideas in this thread. I'll summarize a suggestion for you.

Go to MicroCenter
Ask an associate about building a computer for you. Iron out fees, etc...
Walk around the store and find the following:
i5 CPU
H110 Motherboard (Asrock or Asus are good in general. My daughter has a Gigabyte in her machine)
8GB-16GB DDR4 RAM (G.Skil or Corsair is my preference)
1TB WD Blue 7200 RPM hard drive
240GB Solid State Drive (Intel, Mushkin or Samsung)
A 6GB GTX 1060 or 980 Ti Graphics Card
Pick a case, and get the OS

The employee should be able to help you on your walk around and ensure you get everything you need. They also have some incredible Motherboard/CPU combo deals. Make sure to get a compatible set to get a nice discount.

Then let them work their magic.

Just my personal suggestion. Live help sounds like something you'd benefit from more than ordering online.
