Hi everyone

I was thinking about buying a pre-built Gaming PC, my budget is 1000€

 

I found 2 desktops and was wondering if they filled my demands

These are the ones I was thinking about:

HP 880-142np

HP Pavilion 690-0005np

 

 

I don't need a monster PC, my demands are: 

-video at 1080p/2k

-gaming at a constant 30fps(at least, my laptop barely runs 2011 games at low settings lol)

-light video and image editing

-and upgradeability for more ram/better graphic card(for the future, I don't plan to buy the upgrades at the same time as the PC)

 

just wondering if the options I said are good and if there are better options, thanks for the help

Im not the guy to ask for pre-builds, but i know both of those pre-builds are very bad value. Do both of those cost 1k€?

 

I would suggest building your own or getting a friend to do it. (You will get significantly more for your money)

Build one yourself, it's rly easy, just have a handy guide ready(YouTube helps)

 

1060/1070(or wait for the 20xx series)

i5-8400/8600k

Msi B360 Gaming Plus

2x 8gb dual channel sticks

Decent PSU

And a decent NZXT case

Windows 10 Pro license from eBay(OEM, way cheaper than retail keys, 10€+-

 

That should be way under 1000€ and will give you Miles higher performance than a prebuilt HP.

Way better performance and features. Building your own PC is easier than it seems and is more like building with LEGO pieces.

 

If you are looking for pre-builds, look for PCs that have at least a gtx 1060 6GB or a gtx 1070 in them
