Why are you so set on a prebuilt? Building it yourself is almost always the best way to go... especially for your use.

http://pcpartpicker.com/b/KdTH99 this is my first build. Now after being a month or so of it being built and games played on it. All I can say it's a great PC and runs great. Never played CSGO but I've have played planetside 2 and it ran it very well on high and medium(walking around outside of firefights). Did not factor in a monitor or keyboard and mouse as I already had them, but yeah do with this as you will.

I need a Prebuilt PC that can run games like CSGO, Minecraft, and LoL

Budget : less then $800

PM me, I run a business that can hook you up :) We use quality components and have a much cheaper profit margin than Dell or HP etc.

My account is almost entirely dormant. Hope you all are having a grand time. Many years of fun were had here.

Build your own, you save money and get a better quality machine that you can point to and say "I built that".

Some pre-builts can actually provide better value with the cost of windows included. If you are careful with your selection and buy something about $200-300 below your total budget, you can get something pretty decent and then add a GPU like a GTX 750Ti or R7 370 which will be totally fine for the games you want to play. And you might possibly even save a little money in the end.

 

But I wouldn't recommend doing so over building your own. Building your own is the best option as you'll know exactly what components you'll be using and the quality there-of will almost certainly be better than what you get in a pre-built (example: sketchy PSUs). ;)

Usually the better ones you can get are from your local small PC shops. But always ask for someone to look over the build that you want to get.

 

You could also get a list of PC parts and a then take it to some local PC shop they will charge a fee for building it.

 

But as long as you have a good parts building it is like LEGO.

Yeaa.. But, at least they do a really good job at "pre-built" stuff.

 

The best thing to do is go through hardware retailers, almost all of them will take any parts list you give them and build you the PC for around 50$ and will instal the OS and set everything up like drivers for another 50$.

Yea.. But some people really like their cases such as aventum, velox, or bolt. They look so cool. But i think they're using lian li case for their new bolt

You can buy thoes exact cases at a hardware retailer and have them build a system in it for you for a fraction of the price.
