Thats not true.

I have seen even better deals but you can run VR for much cheaper then 1500-2000 dollars.

Not on Newegg but this one is pretty good for $700.

https://www.amazon.com/CYBERPOWERPC-GXIVR8020A5-Desktop-i5-8400-Processor/dp/B07B6H4GNY/

Not to mention you could buy the RTX 2080 separately and still come out ahead. And that's before selling the RX 580.

This is a pretty good deal:

If you want slightly better performance and a good warranty deal then this is an alright system:

I would go with this instead

on sale for 699, it's new, has a superior CPU, and a superior GPU, the two most important parts of the system.

Lacks an SSD, but SSDs are only $40 dollars these days, so you can easily add it yourself (just buy a SATA3 cable to connect to motherboard), and install windows 10 onto it.

For gaming, especially just fortnite types of games, 8GB of RAM is plenty.

If you want to buy the local PC, maybe show him this amazon deal as a bargaining tool, and tell him to bring that deal down to $550, then I think it'd be more worth it.

Here is a decent one

I’m not Canadian, but I’ll try to help.

This PC is a great build with an awesome CPU and a decent GPU but lacks both an SSD and 16 gigs of RAM, both necessary for future-proofing. (The SSD is necessary now, but you can hold off with 8 gigs of ram) Sadly, I can’t find builds that are less than 1k CAD with anything similar or better than this with more RAM or an SSD.

I recommend getting a separate SSD like this. (You can always do the cheaper 250 gb variant for less money). I recommend this SSD because it is one of the fastest and comes with amazing Windows 10 cloning software. this guide is how I installed mine (just ignore the laptop specific parts like removing the battery. You can then order a SATA wire like this one to install your SSD. (If you don’t know where in the case you should put your SSD, just use 3M or double sided tape and tape it someone aesthetically pleasing on the bottom of the case.

The sata cables should be obvious where to install (on the right side of the motherboard, usually stacked on top of each other, slightly above or below the GPU), otherwise, you can look up your motherboard to find the SATA slots. Then just install the cloning software and follow the guide. When you need more RAM, look at the PCs ram slot and order another 8 gig stick (if there is only 1 stick of 8 gigs), otherwise, just order 16 gigs of any DDR4 ram you want. I’m sorry you need to do work to get a fully future proof machine, but remember this isn’t 100% needed, just highly recommended. (Plus you can save 100 bucks from your paycheck a few weeks from now for the SSD, you don’t need it the second u get ur pc. Good luck, let me know if you need any help!

P.S You don’t even need a big SSD, just something to hold Windows 10 and programs like Steam and Chrome. Big stuff like games can go on the HDD

https://www.amazon.com/gp/aw/d/B07B6H4GNY/ref=sspa_mw_detail_0?ie=UTF8&psc=1

They make this same pc but with a gtx 1060 as well which is basically the same as the rx580 but it cost a little more an doesn’t run as hot. But this is exactly what I owned and still have all the parts to. Not every game will run on max settings but you can definitely run games on good settings an get good frames

EDIT: https://www.amazon.com/gp/aw/d/B0757DVF4Z/ref=sspa_mw_detail_0?ie=UTF8&psc=1&th=1
This is the gtx1060 also includes ssd if you wanna spend a little more

This is my case (and computer I'm upgrading), sorry: https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B07B6H4GNY/

I'm... admittedly not sure what size mobo is in the case. I do know it's a "micro ATX," is that it?

I purchase my computer fully built from Amazon. I also have an SSD, which is most of the reason for quick loading times.

https://www.amazon.com/CYBERPOWERPC-GXIVR8020A5-Desktop-i5-8400-Processor/dp/B07B6H4GNY

Someone just linked this in another thread, and IMO it's a better deal, just gotta add a SSD.

This is a much better gaming machine. It doesn't have an Nvidia GPU but it does have an AMD RX 580 which should meet or beat the GTX 1060 in most benchmarks.

prebuilt, if I were more computer savvy that probably would’ve been cheaper but I got this CYBERPOWERPC. Graphics and cpu could use some upgrades, but from what I understand I can play most vr games smoothly. I’ll update this when i get it on Wednesday if interested.

So I found what you mentioned here: https://www.amazon.com/CYBERPOWERPC-GXIVR8020A5-Desktop-i5-8400-Processor/dp/B07B6H4GNY?th=1&psc=1

Originally it’s something like $700 with a RX 580 but with a different graphics card GeForce 2070 it’s close to $2000. Pretty steep price but I mean if it lasts a while it’s worth it no?

https://www.amazon.com/CYBERPOWERPC-GXIVR8020A5-Desktop-i5-8400-Processor/dp/B07B6H4GNY

I would get this computer simply because AMD has a promotion where u can get some free games, the computers themselves should be pretty much identical in performance.

For $600 you'll have to build it.

​

The cheapest VR ready prebuilts usually start around $700. Here's a pretty good entry VR pre-built for $750 https://www.amazon.com/CYBERPOWERPC-GXIVR8020A5-Desktop-i5-8400-Processor/dp/B07B6H4GNY/

You decide... It's your decision. Build or buy one of the better pre-built PCs. I prefer to build, but that's me.

https://www.amazon.com/CYBERPOWERPC-GXIVR8020A5-Desktop-i5-8400-Processor/dp/B07B6H4GNY

None sorry. Compare the specs for those games and it might give you a better idea.

This is the PC I bought a few months back.
https://www.amazon.com/dp/B07B6H4GNY/ref=cm_sw_r_cp_apa_4g7SBbBWMN30Y
All I upgraded was ram (for non-gaming stuff), added SSD (huge improvement, totally worth money) and new PSU (cheap off-brand one it came with made me nervous).
You could read through reviews on that PC to get a ball park idea of what your build would be like.

Best of luck!

this prebuilt I found on amazon is cheaper
https://www.amazon.com/CYBERPOWERPC-GXIVR8020A5-Desktop-i5-8400-Processor/dp/B07B6H4GNY/ref=sr_1_1?s=pc&ie=UTF8&qid=1538954947&sr=1-1&keywords=gaming+pc&refinements=p_36%3A-100000

My only suggestion to swap is the PSU, all prebuilt psu's are shaky

https://www.amazon.ca/CYBERPOWERPC-GXiVR8020A5-i5-8400-802-11AC-Adapter/dp/B07B6H4GNY/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&qid=1539205098&sr=8-1&keywords=rx+580+pc

I'm not familiar with Canadian prices and this is $100 over your budget, but this is probably the best you'll get that can run AC Origins at 60fps 1080p at decent graphics settings (high, probably not "very high")

If your budget is strict, I'd recommend building instead. https://ca.pcpartpicker.com/list/gVn33b

No, because for $200 less (at Amazon) you can buy a prebuilt with the same processor but an RX 580 instead of a 1050 Ti. For $150 you can upgrade the RAM to 16GB and grab a 120GB SSD to add if you wish. However I still would recommend building your own- watch some YouTube tutorials and such, it's really quite easy even for a first-time builder.

I would buy this one, it is not terribly expensive and it can be somewhat upgraded in the future.

What's the next limiting factor to improve my gaming experience with this machine beyond getting an SSD?

https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B07B6H4GNY/ref=ppx_yo_dt_b_asin_title_o03_s00?ie=UTF8&psc=1

I do not know.. It's this.. https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B07B6H4GNY/ref=ppx_yo_dt_b_asin_image_o05_s00?ie=UTF8&psc=1

Nothing special, bought this https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B07B6H4GNY/ref=ppx_yo_dt_b_asin_title_o00_s00?ie=UTF8&psc=1 when it was on sale for 800 at the time as a quick replacement. Added a basic SDD.

I think /r/pcmasterrace would be a better place to ask that, but IMO (and I am no expert in desktops) is this one because it comes with a more powerful hexa core CPU which you might need for your work.

This is Prob best prebuilt for less than 800, you could do something potentially cheaper if you built but if your not sure how to build yourself and don't want to learn how to. If you do want to learn how to build, I can throw a list together.

The FX-6300 is a 6 year old CPU that has no business being paired with a modern GPU. If I were you I'd spend an extra 50$ and get this:

It has a vastly superior CPU, significantly better GPU, and includes a mouse and keyboard.

16 Gigs of memory and a R7 1700 CPU is very impressive for a Pre-Bulit under 1000. However, the Rx 550 is really underwhelming for an $800 PC. I’d say go for it if you don’t run too many heavy games, but if you do, here’s a Pre-Built on Amazon that would perform much better in most games for the same price in exchange for less Ram: https://www.amazon.com/CYBERPOWERPC-GXIVR8020A5-Desktop-i5-8400-Processor/dp/B07B6H4GNY/ref=sr_1_1?s=pc&ie=UTF8&qid=1526083787&sr=1-1&keywords=Gaming+PC (Though let me go ahead and say, building a PC is much better value than either of these.)

Thank you so much for the help! I also saw this PC on amazon, any thoughts on this, thanks!

Also i am not absolutely sure on getting a dual monitor, when i looked around people said this is a good one. What are your thoughts on this? Thank you.

Also, if you have any keyboard or mouse you can recommend that would be great.

This was the pre build I bought, when I looked it up it said 500w

https://www.amazon.com/CYBERPOWERPC-GXIVR8020A5-Desktop-i5-8400-Processor/dp/B07B6H4GNY

price was $699 when I got it so maybe wait for the price to drop again, or not. After comparing the parts prices to this rig, I don't think I could built this rig for cheaper myself, which is why I got 2 of them. Comes with a keyboard and mouse, but you will have to have monitor or TV, probably an HDMI cable (can get an amazon one for cheap).

Only thing I would recommend would be to replace the 1 TB HDD with a 1 TB SSD drive. This rig runs the game amazingly well, but man are the load times terrible, and I isolated that to it not having an SSD drive. I plan to get one myself.

I'd say that's a decent starter system but definitely not for that hefty price tag. Ever consider building a system yourself? Would cost you a fair bit less for potentially better parts also.

Edit:

I don't live in America but this seems more like it, if anyone could correct me or find something better? :)

https://www.amazon.com/CYBERPOWERPC-GXIVR8020A5-Desktop-i5-8400-Processor/dp/B07B6H4GNY/ref=lp_8588811011_1_3?s=pc&ie=UTF8&qid=1540912863&sr=1-3

It ended up being super loud and heats up in 5 minutes of GW2 running, plus the sucky graphic.

And I mentioned I like to stay under $1200 budget. :/

For prebuilt I find this one is decent: https://www.amazon.com/CYBERPOWERPC-GXIVR8020A5-Desktop-i5-8400-Processor/dp/B07B6H4GNY/ref=mp_s_a_1_3?ie=UTF8&qid=1538679530&sr=8-3&pi=AC_SX236_SY340_FMwebp_QL65&keywords=gaming+desktop&dpPl=1&dpID=510JZUGMO6L&ref=plSrch. It goes on sale quite often too. If you're willing to build yourself expect to pay $600-1000. Here's a quick build I put together: https://pcpartpicker.com/list/t8y33b. Keep in mind you'll still need a mouse / keyboard / monitor / os(you can get windows for $5 off eBay). I'd personally suggest looking for a used graphic card / ram over at /r/hardwareswap though. Even though the games you listed aren't demanding I'd still suggest getting a gtx1060 or Rx 580 minimum as your first card.

I assume building your own PC would be cheaper but if your like me and don’t know how, I would suggest this. This is what I bought off Amazon, runs Assetto Corsa and ACC at max settings no problem.

Here try this one, it's the one I use and it runs stuff like Rainbow Six at decently high graphics very well :)

This is more correct, for what you wrote on the things you are going to do.

Don’t know if this is ok, but can someone please tell me if This Pc would be compatible with This 2TB hard drive ? Thank you guys so much!

Is this prebuilt worth it?

Or

https://www.amazon.com/CYBERPOWERPC-Master-GMA2200A-Desktop-7200RPM/dp/B06ZYX8DQ3

For around $900 you should be looking for a machine with, roughly,

• CPU: AMD Ryzen 5 2600 or 2600X or Intel i5-8400
  
• GPU: AMD RX 580 or Nvidia GTX 1060
  
• RAM: 8GB DDR4 at 3000MHz clock or better
  
• Storage: 500GB to 1TB, preferably SSD
  
  Look at the specs you're getting and try not to get ripped off. For example, at the time of writing this is going for $800 and is fairly reasonable.

Apologies,

CYBERPOWERPC Gamer Xtreme GXIVR8020A5 Desktop Gaming PC (Intel i5-8400 6 Core Processor, AMD RX 580 4GB, 8GB DDR4 RAM, 1TB 7200RPM HDD, WiFi, Win 10 Home 64-bit), Black - VR Ready https://www.amazon.com/dp/B07B6H4GNY/ref=cm_sw_r_cp_api_eEwTBb4WWY4Y6

Here's 2 you can choose:

Skytech

Cyberpower

Skytech is Ryzen + 1050 Ti and Cyber is Intel + RX 580 4G. In terms of performance wise, Cyber will be better because 580 4G > 1050 Ti, but of course, slightly more expensive.

Overall internal parts use, Skytech > cyber because Skytech uses better power supply, memory, and etc.

Both can play almost any games in the market at 1080p high to ultra setting. Both system will be able to handle Minecraft for sure.

You can also wait till BF/CM which is next month, I'm sure you can pick one of these PC up for $50-$100 less.

Thank's. Normally I don't trust used stuff. I'm thinking of saving up a couple hundred more and getting this.

Thoughts on CyberPowerPC brand?

Specifically looking at this PC:

https://www.amazon.ca/CYBERPOWERPC-GXiVR8020A5-i5-8400-802-11AC-Adapter/dp/B07B6H4GNY/ref=sr_1_28?m=AUJBRIGYRJ3Q8&s=warehouse-deals&ie=UTF8&qid=1540264356&sr=1-28

The reviews on Amazon.ca says its good, but the reviews I found for CyberPowerPC doesn't seems good at all.

Alternatively was going to make: https://ca.pcpartpicker.com/user/AlphaEtOmega/saved/#view=bhwyXL

But thats another story (since i'll probably change the case etc..)

Thanks in advance!

A prebuilt PC will save you a lot of trouble and time especially if you have no experience but is usually $100 or more than if you build it yourself. There are some great deals out there though that can reduce that gap.

Here's a $750 prebuild: Amazon Link
Prebuilt PCs also have limited warranty so do take note of that.

Similar specs (but probably slightly better quality) if you build yourself would actually cost a bit more ($790): https://pcpartpicker.com/list/zsfvvn

Note that it's still not best bang for the buck (580 4GB only, no SSD, bad PSU, etc.). Something like this would be better: https://pcpartpicker.com/list/dXtnMZ

If you have more to spend, upgrade to 16GB of RAM.

I wouldn't say this is a good deal either...but it's not half as bad as your op one.

Head over to r/bapcsalescanada and look

> do you have any recommendations my budget is 900

You should definitely do your do-diligence on this as I'm not the best source for that kind of information. However, a quick look at Amazon got me this result. The specs seem to offer pretty decent mid-range performance, and comes with a keyboard and mouse. It doesn't come with a monitor, so you'll need to look into that.

Maybe check out that subreddit the other guy posted. Ask them for suggestions.

Check this out on Amazon: $779 CYBERPOWERPC Gamer Xtreme GXIVR8020A5 .. just add a monitor.

It's $800 without a graphics card and then has options all the way up to $2k depending on the graphics card you have him put in it. I don't know anything about graphics cards and am not sure what I would actually need just to play a game like Overwatch. I've also been looking at this build on amazon that has a graphics card included and think it may be a better option. https://www.amazon.com/CYBERPOWERPC-GXIVR8020A5-Desktop-i5-8400-Processor/dp/B07B6H4GNY/ref=sr_1_2?s=pc&ie=UTF8&qid=1550353914&sr=1-2&keywords=gaming+computer#customerReviews

Thanks for the reply.

Something like this would do the job. Really any desktop with a decent CPU and dedicated graphics card (either Nvidia or AMD graphics, not intel) will do what you're looking for.

I have this case but I'm unsure what motherboard sizes it can hold.

Can I get your opinion on this pre built? I just wanna play destiny 2 on it mainly

https://www.amazon.com/gp/aw/d/B07B6H4GNY/ref=ox_sc_act_image_1_1_1?smid=ATVPDKIKX0DER&psc=1

Building a gaming PC you will always get better performance per dollar than a pre built, and is much easier than most people think. However here are a few options if you still want a prebuilt...

This has a better graphics card https://www.amazon.com/dp/B07BV33X5G/ref=cm_sw_r_cp_apa_i_ygDvCbQ9KGGZW

Better price with similar performance https://www.amazon.com/dp/B07B6H4GNY/ref=cm_sw_r_cp_apa_i_jiDvCbR2JY8RF

Another option https://www.amazon.com/dp/B079HWQFHS/ref=cm_sw_r_cp_apa_i_zjDvCbY7GSNCF

A lot of prebuilts come with 8gb of RAM moving up to 16 is a very easy DIY upgrade.

Throw in a 40$ ssd and its more than sufficient for 1080p60
