What’s the best pc for this price range?

Go to solution Solved by Slottr,

I just wanted to chime in,
 

Yes building a PC is generally cheaper and will always recommend it. You learn a lot and there’s an entire community behind every topic that’s available for help where you need it. 
 

That being said: the markets for parts are very off right now and you may end up buying a pre built system for that reason alone. So in that case, buying a pre built isn’t necessarily a bad thing, but you’ll definitely be getting less for your money than you would ~6 months to a year from now. 

I don’t know which one is the best as not very techY but got a few pictures plz help me choose one for this price doesn’t need to be these ones.

Can you copy and past or type out the full specs of each computer instead of the picture just showing the case and basic description please? Also you can get a much better system than all of them if you build it yourself is there a specific reason you are going prebuilt?

They're all horribly overpriced. From what I can see without full specs sheets, the second one from the bottom is the best, imo, and 600 Euros for a Ryzen 3 and an RX 570 with an SSD barely big enough for Windows and GTA V? Nope.

I enjoy buying junk and sinking more money than it's worth into it to make it less junk.

In this price range, the best price to performance build would be the rx 570 with the ryzen 3 processor.

Because the  rx 570 is better than the gtx 1650 and it's cheaper, also ryzen 3 would be better value the the i3.

Small question: which ryzen 3 processor the build has and which i3 the other builds have ?

Yeah those are all total garbage for the price. It'll take you all of an hour watching YT videos to get the hang of building a PC, and the manuals will tell you exactly what to do. The hardest parts of the process are choosing the parts and managing cables. The actual building process is a piece of cake and can be done in 15 minutes.

I enjoy buying junk and sinking more money than it's worth into it to make it less junk.

When I said copy and paste or type out the specs I meant no pictures, they clog up the thread. These are all overpriced and just crappy configs, you should buy and build the computer yourself, you can get a much better system. You can watch a tutorial on YouTube that shows you step by step how to build a PC and have it done in an hour.

Nope. 3200G, which is generationally a 2000-series part.

Also, please post links instead of screenshots, all those makes it very difficult to scroll through, especially on mobile (I edited your replies to put each picture in a spoiler tag).

No, same thing overpriced junk. Doesn't even have a dedicated GPU. What's your budget and country?

 If you're deadset on not building it yourself you can also check your local classifieds or facebook marketplace see if there is anything listed in your price range. Keep in mind it's a whole other ball game buying a gaming PC on the used market. If you find one, type out the specs on here and get a second opinion on if it is worth it or not.
