What is the cost of your current gaming pc?

[themaniac]

I don't know if you guys see it or not but there is indeed a comma between the 3 and the 2 0's which makes it 3k not 3....

it needs to have a third 0 before i will say its 3000

[UnknownDepths]

Well once I get a couple more upgrades it'll be $3000+. I do plan on going 4K if it's true 8GB VRAM versions of GTX 980s are going to be released which will raise that price even higher for me if so.

[flibberdipper]

Right now, I'm sitting close to $600 (Dell, netbook, radio tuner, monitor, and peripherals).

[Poohy14]

started out with $650 budget and over 2 years I am current at $1716.78 with the pricing at PCpartpicker

lol I stand corrected, I didn't see it

My builds are usually just constantly upgraded a piece at a time till they become new builds, like a lot of people. Though if you add up everything that's in my current gaming machine, monitors accessories and all its about $2800. Considering that parts of it are starting to get out of date, the number makes me sad. I put about 1500$ into my NAS, but it should be good for many years.

I am just going to respond with the budget of my next PC and all / the one in current progress as my current rig goes to my mother.

[SurvivorNVL]

My overall set-up and rig is far overkill, but I like way above 60fps for everything, I love 1440p(4k in the future as I love the pixel density on 27 / 30 inch) and I absolutely cannot live without audiophile equipment  So, my stuff is in the upward 8000 - 9000 range.

For just the PC, budget was around $2500. I had a second GPU for a little while that I sold later. Spent around $2100 for what I currently have. With monitors and peripherals and speakers, I'm way over budget.

My build isn't going to be explicitly for gaming... It hasn't been built yet but I intended for it to cost about $1,500 but I just was like meh I guess I'll wait a bit longer so I can build something more satisfying for a longer time... Now as it stands my future build with out the extras just the computer it's self is like under $2,000 but adding on the monitor, keyboard, mouse, desk and chair (since I don't have any of that as I own a laptop and it's not stationary.) makes it around $2,500... 

 So hopefully mid 2015 I'll actually be able to build the computer...

£3,500 for the whole setup, which equates to around $5,600.

I upgrade over time so... 

This & I have no budget! 

 

If I want something I try to find a way to get it even if I have to wait to get it!

Same here, I don't have a budget and If I do want something, I will get it. However I do set a limit and see whether what I bought it worth my money in the long run. Like between GTX 970 and GTX 980, I'll go with a GTX 970 because it cost less and

can last just as long as the GTX 980. My main rig, with peripherials comes out to about $2,600 to $3,000.

My old board cost me $300, used it for about 6 years so that comes out to about 13 cents per day to run it.

[SkR]

ive spent just over $2200 AUD and still have some minor mods to go (~$200)

 

YES, this is much more than i expected. i originally was gonna spend max of $1900 on the whole setup

[JUMBOxSIZE]

originally my budget was like, 600 or 700. Added some more stuff over time (fans, AIO, air cooler, larkooler kit, ssd, seasonic X-series psu, gpu). Ended up spending an extra roughly 400 to switch to a z97 mobo and 4690k.

Went cheap to begin with, regretted it, ended up spending more than I should have.

I have a similar story lol

[Hatsune Miku 「 」]

Making a new Multi-Purpose workstation. Budget: $5k AUD

[Octagoncow]

I've upgraded over time so it's hard to remember the price of everything but I always buy within my budget. I've had the philosophy that if I stay within my budget then I'll have more money for the future to buy the new and improved version of the part. 

[hell_rider29]

1850 $ = 1450 € for me, I'm very surprised that's my PC cost more than in the US, yes because it's Europe and i live in France. That's not a surprise for me then the IT material is more cheapest in US. 

[razor767]

£1500 which is about $2400, it's a great rig but I went well over budget and I won't make that mistake ever again.

[ARCIIANGEL]

I've spent over £3000 on my first build (less than a year old), I will be adding new headphones, amp and dac soon too ( another £500 - 1000 )

[Guest]

£200 Inc OS for what is probably not considered gaming pc, but I still game on it.

[Psykomantis00]

I had no budget. My only regret is going AMD instead of Intel/Nvidia. Probably the last time I build AMD.

I'm sorry for you, but AMD's CPU are suck. You should to buy an intel CPU and AMD GPU is a good equal.

[TacticlTwinkie]

For my current setup, the tower itself cost about $1500 when it was all said and done. I have spent about another $800 on monitors, and about $275 on peripherals. This is the retail price of it all, not including os, shipping or tax.
