What Do You Think About The Quality And Price Of This Gaming Pc

What is the average price for a gaming PC?

It varies a lot, which is one of the nice things about gaming on PC; you can spend as much or as little as you want.A bare-bones entry level machine usually starts at around $300–400 USD, right around console prices. The components are usually one or two generations old, and many people will use older components. Carefully picking parts and overclocking can give you impressive performance at those low prices.A top end machine can cost tens of thousands of dollars, but most top end machines usually sit around $4,000–5,000. They’ll typically have entirely top end components, specially selected to match a color or theme. They’ll also have custom water cooling loops with multiple radiators to maximize cooling while minimizing noise.I would guess that the average machine is between $800–1000. That’s the point where you can get very good performance without starting to hit the point of diminishing returns. Components are usually current generation GPUs, but often with older CPUs. They also frequently have AIO water coolers, but not custom loops.

What things should I know before buying a gaming PC?

Think before you act. What I mean is many run out and buy/build a gaming PC, then find games to play. The more correct manner, especially if you’re on a budget, is to get a list of games you plan to play and buy/build based off the hardware specifications for those games. In other words, a 8-core processor, GTX 1080, and 32GB of RAM sounds awesome to an enthusiast, but if you’re only planning on playing Minesweeper, you’ve essentially built a bulldozer to move 10 pounds of dirt.Next up, I’ve said this a few times in previous answers, the price tag between buying and building is often very competitive, but it can also be stupidly one-sided. Before you buy, look at the specific parts and use PCPartPicker or similar outlet to build a comparable system and compare costs there. Remember to factor in the OS in your cost comparison. You’ll often see that the prices are in par with each other OR that the store bought computer is grossly overpriced. Also keep in mind the advantages of buying an off the shelf computer from one retailer, specifically the warranty process.Last but not least, do your research. Every praised manufacture has a line of what I call red-headed step children. A line of products that just failed to meet the par on their usual quality and performance. Avoid these. Take the time to research the CPU. I’ve noticed some stores having sales on computers, but upon further examining, I noticed that many of the processors are old or they’re including Win7, which reached it’s EOL in a little over 2 years. If you plan on expanding in 3 years, buy with this in mind. Avoid Dells as expanding hardware tends to be problematic. Plan for the future. 8GB is what many budget gamers have, but if you have the budget, reach for 12GB to give yourself a bit of longevity.Ultimately if you have a question, ask a trusted friend or hop on a message board or something similar.

When do you think 4K/120FPS will be the standard for PC gaming?

It depends on Nvidia and AMD research and engineering departments.While in theory we can reach said level on lower quality settings, for Ultra ones (so where you should aim for) even RTX 2080Ti lags by around 20%-50%, depending on game.So, if the improvements like “35% from 1080 to 2080” will translate to “30% from 2080 to 3080”, then top gamers will use it by default. Then you’ll need another two generations to make it possible at a reasonable price.Assuming 1,5–2 years for each new generation, we’ll see it around 2020 for those that can afford putting above average monthly wage(depending on country, of course), then another 3–4 years for 1060–1070 price-equivalents.As for console gaming - it’s the same thing - consoles aimed with their power at medium quality specs at all Times, to make them affordable for the broader audience. PS5 and new Xbox won’t have those, they are supposed to be made too soon. YOu’ll have to wait for PS6. Then it’ll be the standard.Besides this, you have an issue with 4k/120 displays anyway. Could you try and find for yourself TV capable of said data stream?As for monitors, I found 3 models on the market:Acer Nitro XV273KPBMIIPPHZX for around 1000USDAcer Predator X27 czarny 4K for around 2500USDASUS ROG PG27UQ for around 3000USD

How bad is buying a gaming PC at Walmart?

As I’ve mentioned in another question there is no hard definition for a gaming pc. That said, Walmart does offer reasonable prices on computers including gaming computers.You may however want to play close attention to the warranties. Just because a desktop comes with a good processor, graphics card, and lots of ram, doesn’t mean it has a high quality power supply, motherboard, cooling fans, or hard drives. One part not performing well may cause other parts to fail too, especially in the case of the power supply. I have literally seen cheap power supplies go up in smoke and flames. When building my own desktop I only buy parts with a warranty of at least 5 years, but I’ve learned to be cautious. If you buy for example the “CYBERPOWERPC Gamer Xtreme VR GXiVR3800WST” available at now in walmart stores, you do get a lot of power for the price, but it only comes with a 1 year limited hardware warranty, and the reputation of the service they offer if you need to warranty is not great either. Walmart carries a lot of these kinds of brands. You may want to get a desktop that has at least a 3 year warranty, and a reputation for good service. That will be harder to find in Walmart stores.I’m not sure if you were actually thinking about a gaming laptop. Laptops are convenient, but tend to have even shorter lifespans, and are usually vastly inferior for gaming against similarly priced desktops. You pay more to get a laptop with the same model of graphics card, as opposed to a desktop, and even then the names are deceiving because the “mobility” versions of graphics cards are typically much less powerful despite sharing a name. So factor that in when making a decision.Remember the biggest impact on gaming performance usually comes from the GPU (graphics card). Before buying a gaming computer look up benchmarks online for the model of graphics card the computer your considering contains, and compare it to the benchmarks of graphics cards in other computers you are considering.

Which is better, a PS4 or a gaming PC?

With a gaming PC, you have a lot more variety with games, and have more access to indie titles, at the cost of less stable servers and the occasional FPS drop. Consoles, on the other hand, support more AAA titles and generally are about worse or equal to the graphics on a PC, and on console you are more restricted in your settings and interface.Your budget is also a big factor. To fully reap the benefits of PC performance you need to pay more or look around for parts, some of which are expensive and difficult to find. In the end, III do get what you pay for, but the console is easier from the get go.Also, *most* PC games have free multiplayer, and with consoles you have to pay a fee. However, PC exclusive games are, in my opinion, more "pay to win" than console games, but note the "in my opinion" part.It really depends on what you're gonna play. For MOBAs, MMORPGs and/or FPSs, go with a PC. For RPGs, more AAA FPSs, and Adventure games, go with a console.Again, either role works well for gaming. If I had the choice, I'd buy both, but think about what you want to play and your interest in certain genres in general.
