Will this run games like overwatch, witcher 3 and PUBG

[ngamer340]

I'm interested in PC's, but have decided that I am not ready to build one for myself just yet (future project when I have a more stable income). I also want it quickly before my dad changes his mind (he wants to play it too, but not if its not worth he hassle) XD

The specs are there.
Thanks

I can always add things to, like a better psu or more ram, it'll just void the warranty but if I get it i'm going to wait a while and see if it runs okay.

It can, but it'd be much better to use that $900 to build yourself a PC that runs significantly better. Pre-builts are almost always not worth the price. At school so I can't get one to you right now, but there's definitely better builds for the money. Ryzen is pretty much always better than i5s, for instance.

Overwatch no worries, that game isn't all that cpu demanding and is basic enough to run on a 1060/3 without issues. W3 and PUBG are much more intensive on both the cpu and the gpu, and have issues at higher settings, even on a standard 1080p/60Hz monitor. You'd need to turn the settings down med-high at best or the fps will tank. Those games do much better on a stronger/faster i5 than the 7400 or a decent i7/xeon.

Might want to look into a Ryzen 5 build, it'll run basically the same as the i5-7400 in single thread, easy games, but has the core counts of an i7 or better, and is priced similar, if not cheaper than equitable Intel.

Just not at that store it seems.

Yeah, I could always upgrade parts as and when though, and I wouldn't ming playing at high settings instead of ultra. Good AMD's in the UK are pretty much always higher in price than i5's unfortunately.

Would this one be better? https://www.amazon.co.uk/ADMI-GTX-1060-GAMING-Pre-Installed/dp/B01IPH2638/ref=sr_1_3?ie=UTF8&qid=1504720313&sr=8-3&keywords=gaming+pc+gtx+1060+6gb
Theres an offer on it at the moment.

You can also build a PC with a G4560 and an RX 470 or GTX 1050 Ti. It would run those games at 1080p 60fps and you will spend much less building it yourself.

I will try and convince my dad, but would this one be okay if I couldn't do that? https://www.amazon.co.uk/ADMI-GTX-1060-GAMING-Pre-Installed/dp/B01IPH2638/ref=cm_cr_arp_d_product_top?ie=UTF8&th=1

MERGED QUESTION
Question from ngamer340 : "Will this PC run PUBG?"

https://www.amazon.co.uk/ADMI-GTX-1060-GAMING-Pre-Installed/dp/B01IPH26W4/ref=cm_cr_arp_d_product_top?ie=UTF8&th=1

Decided not to build as my dad wanted to play it too soon. He's letting me chose a prebuilt but has to be less than 800.

Yes, that will run that game, and most other games for that matter, just fine. Shouldn't be any problems.

It will run but you can have better for the money. Also that psu in there seems shady and the moment you get it I would recommend you replace it asap.

PUBG minimum system requirements
Here's what you need to run PlayerUnknown's Battlegrounds on your PC, according to developer Bluehole:
OS: 64-bit Windows 7, Windows 8.1, Windows 10
Processor: Intel Core i3-4340 / AMD FX-6300
Memory: 6 GB RAM
Graphics: Nvidia GeForce GTX 660 2GB / AMD Radeon HD 7850 2GB
DirectX: Version 11
Network: Broadband Internet connection
Storage: 30 GB available space

PUBG recommended system requirements
Minimum settings are never the ideal way to play a game, and PUBG is no exception. Here's the kind of hardware we'd actually recommend playing Battlegrounds on.
OS: 64-bit Windows 10
Processor: AMD Ryzen 5-1600 / Intel Core i5-7600K
Memory: 8 GB RAM
Graphics: Nvidia GTX 1060 6GB or better
Your PC should be fine.

Thank you so much, and yeah I did see that XD I'll have a Seasonic S12-II 520W 80+ Bronze Certified Wired Power Supply ready incase it seems off.

Umm no, that Amazon build is funky. Base settings for DDR4 is 2133MHz. You can get 1866MHz, if for some odd reason you had a need for slower speed ram, but 16Gb of 1600MHz DDR4? That's too odd for words to describe, especially in a rig that's claiming it's VR ready with a gtx1060/6. With a kabylake processor it should be running 2400MHz ram, which is a 1:1 ratio with the memory controller, so best performance to heat. There's just something not right there. I'd avoid it.
