I need help! Should i buy a Gaming pc or buy this one?

I was going to build my own pc but after looking at Ebuyer i noticed this computer for a couple pounds less than me building one.
I just need to know if it is worth getting this one instead of building one.
Here is the pc i could buy: http://www.ebuyer.com/267120-acer-predator-g5900-desktop-pt-sf3e2-071


And here is the pc i would build: http://www.amazon.co.uk/registry/wishlist/2HUG9R6E8XLN5

How would i handle these games (fps) for both of these computers.

(I would like to play BF3 on meduim settings)
Thanks in advance

How do I get enough money to buy a gaming PC?

Well you need to save money. That’s it. How you do it depends on your pocket money your financial well being and a lot of other things such as your will to control the urge to order a stack of pizzas when you feel hungry rather than to stay hubgry or eat something homemade. Lol.Just one word of advice a gaming pc is not a destination. You will not attain anything from getting a gaming pc. If you can easily get it or can vet ot on saving for a few months or years perhaps then it is okay.Let me. Give you my experience I had an entry level computer back in 2009 I used to try to play most demanding games on that pc. Optimising gameplay using patches and what not. In 2012 I got a gaming pc by saving for a few years not much just a medium range gaming rig at around 39k inr. I could play the most demanding games of 2012 -2014 in that but believe me in a few weeks this newfound excitement faded. Once i got it it was I got bored of playing games I spent most of my pocket money in games. Played hundreds of them literally but, I got bored in just 3 months.I still think I could have done with my old pc and used the money I spent on a gaming rig in something else.Anyway I know you didn’t ask that so here’s how you can save some money.Stop eating pizzas if you do and restaurants or any other expense.use cheaper stationery.(i did that)Optimise and reduce expenses try to note down your daily expenses and calculate your saving.Do not buy anything from the internet just because it looks nice or you might need “it” some day , that day usually never comes.saving is good but earning is better - try to find something to do in liesure time that draws in some money beleive me every penny helps(just dint go in the wrong direction for money) there are survey websites which pay a little enough to help you a bit. (i did it)This is your biggest source of income -when someone gives you some money as a gift usually when some relative visits anually or on birthday or something save it.Enjoy.

What tips do you have for building a gaming PC?

My only advice is to not go overboard and waste money on things that have absolutely no benefit, and instead use that money to get what you DO need.The thing I see people go overboard with the most is RAM. I see people with 64GB or even 128GB, and then wonder why their games are still at 20 FPS. It’s because after about 16GB of RAM, it’s pretty much useless to add more. So unless you’re building a server or a workstation for 3D CAD or Video Editing, get 16GB of RAM and stop there.Next is the GPU. If you can afford the GTX 1080, by all means go for it. But there’s no reason to if you don’t need it. A gaming rig that has overall good components with a GTX 970 will outperform a rig with crappy components and a GTX 1080. Obviously you should get the best you can afford, but if you can’t afford to get the best of the other components, there’s really no benefit.NOTE: If you’re planning on doing 4K or VR gaming, DEFINITELY spend the money on a GTX 1080. It’s worth it.Next is storage. This is your hard drive or solid state drive. For gaming, you DEFINITELY want a solid state drive. Load times for games and assets will be greatly improved. If you want to go all out, and this is one component I’d go all out on, get an M.2 SSD.While we’re talking about storage, here’s what I usually do on my own machines. I have no idea how much of a performance increase this causes, but it’s probably minimal. I only do it for organization purposes. I have an M.2 SSD for my OS and my main programs, it’s 512GB. I have a SATA SSD that I install my games on, which is 512GB. And finally I have an 8TB SATA HDD that I use for all my files, pictures, documents, other programs I don’t use all that much, and other stuff like that.Your CPU is something that you don’t actually need to spend all that much time on picking. Go for a 4, 6, or 8 core. You definitely want hyperthreading. And you want one with a clock speed of at least 2.5GHz, but try to get one more toward 3GHz. For gaming you want Intel i5 or i7. Don’t go for the Xeon, they’re way overpriced if you’re just playing games. Those are for enterprise applications.That’s about all the tips I have for now.

Should I buy a gaming PC?

Hello :3
200-300$ btw will not get you a fair enough gaming PC at all. Sorry...but:
So for Christmas it's entirely up to you what you want to get.
If you want to spend less money then purchase a 720 or PS4 (console). Because regardless for a gaming PC it will cost you more. However the thing with PC gaming is that it will always be ahead of the console market in games, graphics and everything else.
With a PC you can have everything in one instead of having to leave your PC for something and play a game on your console (e.g on Facebook and wanna play a game that will need your internet) or something along the lines of that.
I'd go with a PC because the variety of everything is immense and just awesome.
I'll link a top-of-the-line gaming PC that will run almost anything on the best graphics for the next year or two then games will be utilizing much more intense graphics that your GPU probably won't be able to handle at Ultra settings etc. Even then, you could run the games at a default graphics w/ a decent FPS. Take note that a decent gaming PC to run most games without having to lower your graphics all the time to play it will cost around 500-700$. Although you can get PC's that go up to 20000$.

Again, I'd go with a PC for various reasons. But up to you man!

Best luck on your decision~

Liquid cooling is EXPENSIVE

best cpu (for over clocking) is the i3 or i7 NOTE: has to have a K at the end or cant overclock...

you should NOT use the stock heatsink for overclocking a good aftermarket heatsink is usually a cooler master air cooler for like 30 bucks

OSes are expensive take this into account cause Windows 8/7 can run bout 100 USDso if you have another means of attaining it go for it...

Should I buy a gaming PC or PS4 in India?

There are certain factors which can help you to decide whether to go for PS4 or gaming PC.(Please do consider XBOX One as well, it may be expensive than PS4 in India, but it is equally good. I have XBOX One S. And you can play xbox exclusives like Forza Horizon 3, Gears of War 3 and Halo 3 etc)(Please dont go for gaming laptops they are very expensive and less upgradable thus defeating the purpose of PC gaming)Price wise Gaming PC will cost you a little more than console or even the same depending on how powerful you want your PC to be. And in the long run you have to pay more for the PC to upgrade it from time to time.Controller is better than mouse/keyboard for all kind of games be it racing, combat, sports except single person shooter. Initially it will be very difficult to play on controller but once you get the heck of it you will enjoy it more than keyboard/mouse. PC has the edge here as you can always buy and attach a controller to your PC and use it along with keyboard/mouse.Games will be released first on console than PC. And consoles have exclusives. But games on PC will be cheaper thanks to steam/torrentz.Graphics is a questionable topic. If you are graphic nerd than ofcourse you can get better graphics on PC thanks to graphic cards. BUT on consoles you will hardly find any frame drops or lag thanks to optimization of games for your console.Choosing a game is easier on console as you just have to look for PS4 or XBOX ONE to be written on top of CD. You just install them and play. You will be assured that it will run smooth. On PC you have to look for system requirements and all.You get motion sensor games on consoles. On pc you dont.Consoles are better for group entertainment as you can connect two controllers and tv screen is always bigger than monitor.Online multiplayer is better on PC as it is free. On XBOX you have subscribe xbox live. On PS4 its playstation online.Consoles will not get slow as they age while PC's will. But PC's are upgradable, consoles are use and throw.ULTIMATELY IF YOU ARE A PROFESSIONAL GAMER GO FOR PC. IF YOU ARE CASUAL GAMER GO FOR CONSOLE.

Where can I get help to build decent gaming pc under  30k??

Indian are very optimistic, we watch a video for a gaming pc under 500$ and think yeah! That's cheap and its got really great specs I should totally do this.... And then you very happily go online and check for prices on all the sites you can, snapdeal, flipkart, infact you even go to Nehru place to go buy the components but you realise INDIA FOR COMPUTER ENTHUSIASTS IS EXPENSIVE AS F***... And just one of your component would cost you 20kSo bottom line, for a proper gaming pc please try and get them from abroad by a relative, cause if you want even a decent gaming pc you would need to dish out quiet a decent amount, so I wouldn't ask you to buy it from India, cause even a decent processor would cost you about 12-15k so best of luck, and sorry to break the bad news to you!
