Top 15 gaming computers

Many people want to buy a gaming computer and not bother with the assembly and selection of components. Many large stores and Internet sites offer their own systems, so we will figure out which system blocks are worthy of the buyer's attention and how to choose a computer for yourself.

Let's be honest - taking a ready-made system unit is unprofitable for several reasons:

• Overcharge. Sellers do not hesitate to throw the cost of the assembly over the price of purchased components.
• The quality of components. It is good if “zero” components are installed inside, but it often happens that used elements are put in place of new parts.
• The quality of the finished product. We do not recommend ordering the assembly on the Internet. Chances are good that a dead system unit will come to you. It is better to come to the store yourself and personally verify the integrity of your future purchase.

We have selected for you the top of the best system units for low-cost and top-end gaming computers in terms of power and price.

Best budget gaming computers: cost up to 50 000 rubles

Build for inexpensive gaming computers. Often, outdated processors and video cards of GTX 1050 Ti / GTX 1060 format are used here.

5 SISTEMA "Sergeant"

This low-cost build will be a salvation for those who need a cheap and at the same time modern computer for simple games. The system is based on AMD Ryzen 3 1200 processor with 4 full cores and 4 threads. The initial clock frequency starts at 3.1 GHz and has the function of automatic overclocking to 3.4 GHz. The motherboard on the V350 chipset was a great solution for this system, but we do not recommend overclocking it.

The standard package also includes a 4 GB video card from AMD RX570, which can be replaced with an 8 GB version. The amount of RAM can be increased 4 times from 4 to 16 GB. Here are just a large amount of data stored on such a system will not work because of the complete set only SSD drive 240 or 480 GB. The case from the company Aerocool looks more like an office one, although it has a beautiful backlight and a minimal cooling system in the form of one 80-mm cooler. For the sake of fairness, we note that 2 more fans can be screwed on the side to blow out and one to be placed on the front for blowing.

4 BrandStar Gaming G1081160-003

44000 rubles will give the buyer for an inexpensive model with a number of advantages and disadvantages, making the purchase both pleasant and controversial. I am pleased with the appearance, which stands out thanks to 3 turntables with backlighting on the front side and a built-in screen, which displays information about the state of temperature and the speed of rotation of the coolers. With the side and face all components will close the walls of tempered glass. Separately allocated optical drive bay causes a feeling of nostalgia.Here the problem also follows - the front part is almost “deaf” and the entire air intake will occur through narrow ribs on the sides of the hull.

Of the components it is worthwhile to single out another Intel Core i5-8500 with 6 cores and 6 threads, with overclocking in frequencies from 3 to 4.1 GHz and it works in conjunction with the GTX 1050 Ti video card. There is only one drive - HDD at 7200 rpm, but there is enough space in the case to add 2 more SSDs and 1 HDD here. The motherboard on the H310 chipset is a budget solution and is not suitable for overclocking. The system is equipped with a 700 W redundant power supply for this configuration, located in the bottom of the case.

3 CompYou Game PC G757 (CY.575334.G757)

We start with the most budget gaming PC. The system is assembled in the ThermalTake case. It does not contain any design elements, but due to the large number of ventilation holes, the temperature inside remains at an acceptable level.In total, you can put 2 fans. The location of the power supply is lower. The FX6300 processor is installed in a motherboard on a 970 chipset, which gives minimal opportunities for overclocking the controller and memory, which is 8 GB with a frequency of 1333 MHz. This is not enough and the frequency will have to be raised to at least 1600, and preferably 1866 MHz. The GeForce GTX 1050 Ti is optimal for a system of this level.

We were pleased with the disk subsystem: in addition to a hard disk drive of 1 TB (rotational speed of 7,200 rpm), an SSD-drive with a capacity of 120 GB is installed. You can install not only the system on it, but also almost any favorite game. He will not raise productivity, but he will speed up the loading of game locations and objects. It feeds all this power supply for 500 W - the optimal solution for such a system. There are not too many connectors. Missing, for example, PS / 2 and VGA ports. But there is a built-in 7.1-channel sound card and a gigabit Ethernet port.

In games, the system unit shows good results: with FullHD resolution and medium or even high settings, the system produces about 35-40 fps. Testing was conducted in games such as The Witcher 3, Battlefield 1, etc.

2 BrandStar Game 1306596-003

For their gaming PC assembly, the guys from BrandStar decided to use a rather stylish AeroCool case. This model not only looks futuristic, but also cools well, without creating excessive noise. The processor is much more powerful than the previous PC. Used Intel Core i3-7100 – budget, but rather productive decision. 1050ti works with it all with the same 4 GB of video memory. RAM is also 8 GB, but already DDR4 with much higher frequencies: 2133 MHz. In the game tests the assembly showed the following results:

• PUBG - FullHD, high graphics settings - 45 fps on average with drawdowns up to 30-33 frames
• GTA V - FullHD, ultra settings, Vsync off - stable 55 fps
• Project Cars on similar settings gives 65-70 fps with rare drawdowns up to 55

The disk subsystem, unfortunately, consists only of 1 TB HDD. A plus here can be considered the volume and speed of rotation of 7200 revolutions per minute, but still it doesn’t get to the SSD drives in any way. The installation of a DVD-RW drive in an age when digital licenses dominate remains doubtful. Do not flatter yourself and the power supply. Despite 700 watts of power, its actual parameters will stop at around 600-650.

1 TopComp MG 5567830

The leader of the category of budget gaming PCs does not stand out by appearance - the case is functional, but simple. On the side there is a transparent wall for inspection of the inside of the computer. The front part is deaf, which is not very good for a gaming computer. Despite the presence of 4 seats for additional fans in the final assembly they are not. A good gaming bundle is installed inside of the Intel Core i5-6500, GTX 1050 Ti and DDR4 8 GB RAM with a frequency of 2133 MHz and an entry-level motherboard on a B250 chipset. The built-in power supply unit on 500 W upon purchase is better for replacing with something more qualitative, for example Cougar.In terms of connectors, there is nothing special to say - there is a standard set, which is enough for most users. Note the lack of a DVD drive. Also, the manufacturer did not install the OS, which somewhat reduces the final cost of the product.

In terms of games, everything is not bad. Witcher 3 on the beyond in Novigrad gives 40 frames. Thus, in front of you is an entry-level game assembly without an OS and in need of self-improvement.

The best gaming computers of the average level: cost up to 100 000 rubles

This category contains relatively powerful builds for most modern games.

5 BrandStar Extreme X1003301-003

On the 5th position this PC turned out to be only because of the unreasonably high price and the case, which would be better to replace. Otherwise, this is a full-fledged gaming system with good potential. A bundle of Intel Core i7-8700 with integrated graphics and NVidia GTX 1080 8Gb will perfectly show itself in all modern games. The motherboard on the Z370 chipset will allow you to overclock the processor well, but then you have to buy or order more advanced cooling. 32 GB of RAM at a drain frequency of 2666 MHz.

Despite the high price, the manufacturer was stingy with the data storage system, which is represented by a 1 TB Western Digital drive and an even more modest 120 GB SSD from Kingston. Thus, in front of you is a modern game assembly that will pull all the games, but whether to overpay for it or not is up to you.

4 CompYou Game PC G777 (CY.585467.G777)

This assembly from the company CompYou hidden in a good case from Zalman. Despite the ambiguous appearance, the airflow here is excellent due to the almost completely open front wall and the lower location of the power supply.However, we are interested in the design of less viscera. Intel Core i7-7700, one of the most powerful processors in the world, is located in the processor socket. Together with it, GeForce GTX 1060 works with 6 GB of video memory. Upset only the amount of RAM - only 8 GB - I would like to double this amount. For an operating system (not preinstalled) and a couple of the most important games, you can use a 120 GB SSD. Another 3 TB of storage is available in the form of HDD with a rotational speed of 5400 rev / min. Not the smartest option, but for the storage of the archive is quite suitable. In addition, you can put here and 4 TB drive.

With performance: all tests were performed in FullHD resolution with the highest possible graphics settings, only Vsync is turned off. The results are as follows: CS: GO - 200-240fps, Dying Light - 60-70 fps with drawdowns up to 40, GTA V (8x anti-aliasing) - 35-40 frames, PUBG - on average about 100 fps

3 RIWER GAME-GTX 1218323

Another build in the case of Zalman. Appearance is again an amateur, but still it is impossible to find fault with cooling - the temperatures inside are kept at an acceptable level. The processor, at first glance, is lower than in the previous assembly - Core i5-8600. In fact, due to the use of more modern architecture, this CPU is a few percent ahead of Core i7-7700, discussed above. Together with him is the same GTX 1060 with 6 GB of memory. Unfortunately, the RAM also didn’t increase - 8 GB DDR4. But the frequencies are somewhat higher - 2400 MHz. The disk system is much smaller - only 1 TB HDD, running at 7200 rev / min. But SSD as much as 240 GB - enough for the system, and for several games. Note that this inexpensive gaming system unit comes preloaded with Windows 10 Home.

In terms of gaming performance, the system is slightly ahead of the previous competitor. On average, performance is 10-15 fps higher. The minimum numbers were obtained in the dynamic Call of Duty World War II - an average of 50 fps with drawdowns of up to 40 fps. In the vast majority of other games on the ultra-graphics settings, the system produces a stable 60 frames per second.

2 ASUS ROG GR8II-T055Z

ATthe second place isIt takes a turnkey solution from a world-class manufacturer. ASUS assembled a productive gaming system in a verycompact and stylish package.You might think that a “laptop iron” is installed inside, but this is not so. The only non-desktop element is RAM. But its volume is higher than that of all competitors in the category - 16 GB. The place of the central processor is occupied by a full-sized Intel Core i7-7700. Reference card, GeForce GTX 1060 with 3 GB of video memory. The disk subsystem includes one small HDD for 1 TB and a smart SSD with a capacity of 256 GB. The operating system is preinstalled - Windows 10 Home. Considering the format, it's worth talking about the connectors: a pair of USB 3.0 and headphone and microphone inputs are located on the front panel; Rear - 2x USB 3.0, 2x USB 3.1 (one of which is USB Type-C), 2x HDMI, DisplayPort, S / PDIF and LAN-port. In terms of performance, the GR8 II is at the assembly level, ranking fourth in the category. The difference in fps is at the level of statistical error.

It is worth making a couple of comments about the compactness of the device. Because of it, firstly, it is difficult to organize a serious cooling system, because of which the temperature is on average 10-12 degrees higher than in similar PCs in traditional cases. Secondly, there may be some problems with the upgrade - it may be difficult to install another video card due to limited space.

1 TopComp PG 7619399

The gold medalist is already screaming in appearance - “I am a gaming computer!” A large window on the side cover, an abundance of illuminations - all of this corresponds to the canons of gaming devices. Although it looks like a Christmas tree. By default, the case comes with 1 blower fan, but the seller completes it 4 more, 2 of which go upward for blown and 2 on the front cover for blowing. The motherboard on the B450 chipset will quietly support the processor without overclocking, which is not recommended for this system.

Inside lurked one of the most powerful processors at the moment - AMD Ryzen 7 2700X. This is an 8-core monster with a clock frequency of 3.7 GHz. The video card is also one of the most powerful in the world - Nvidia GeForce GTX 1070ti with 8 GB of video memory. Unfortunately, the manufacturer and then saved on the "RAM" – 8GB DDR4 with a frequency of 2133 MHz. Long-term storage is organized on the basis of a 2-terabyte hard drive. SSD for 120 GB is a good thing, but for such a price I would like a volume of 240 or 480 gigs.

In terms of performance, this system simply rips apart the competitors described above. GTA V: FullHD, very high graphics settings - at least 88-90 frames, an average of about 110. The same figures in FarCry 5, Kingdom Come: Deliverance. Even the already familiar to you Call of Duty WWII could not lower the bar below 100 frames per second. With such performance, it’s time to think about switching to a 2K monitor.

The best top gaming computers: cost over 100 000 rubles

Game monsters for which there are no obstacles and their performance is at the maximum level. All models received the highest rating, since each of them can be customized to the taste of the buyer.

5 BrandStar Extreme X1007905-003

Introducing the system with the most powerful and modern Intel Core i9-9900K processor. The base frequency for all cores is 3.6 GHz, and in automatic overclocking it reaches 5 GHz! Eight full cores form 16 streams, making the “stone” ideal for both games and video editing. With him in a pair of works no less modern RTX 2080 8 GB. The motherboard on the Z370 chipset successfully copes with these monsters and has received another 64 GB of RAM with a starting frequency of 2666 MHz.

Now let's talk about the cons. The first is a rather weak file storage system, consisting of a 1 TB WD drive and a 120 GB SSD from Kingston. Serious censure is worthy of the case, which is too "deaf" for this assembly, which will lead to the emergence of extremely high temperatures inside it.

4 GIGASPOT ULTIMATE GAMING

This assembly is the best in terms of technical characteristics in our top. All components are placed in a real gamer case COUGAR PANZER EVO BLACK with a powerful blowing, where the power supply has its own separate niche and is isolated from the rest of the system.It also allows you to dilute the loneliness of a 2 TB hard drive with another HDD and add to it all 6 SSD-drives in 2.5 format. Additionally installed SSD format m.2 from Samsung 250 GB. BE QUIET power supply! 700 W has a gold certificate and is made of high-quality components.

Now let's talk about the most delicious. The Intel Core i7-8700 processor is an ideal choice for a top-end system, since the same 9700 and 9900 cost space money. It cools one of the most powerful "towers" – BE QUIET! DARK ROCK 4 with a dissipated power of 200 W and an almost total absence of noise. The processor along with the video card of the new generation GeForce RTX 2080 with 8 GB and 32 GB RAM with a frequency of 2400 GHz are installed on the Gygabite board on the Z390 chipset supporting overclocking. Pull any games in any quality without tension.

3 ARENA A085885

Extend the insanely expensive and powerful gaming PC, assembled in a magnificent case CoolerMaster Cosmos C700P. The name does not deceive - the appearance is just cosmic. The cooling system is very efficient - more than usual, only the top video card heats up, the air outflow from which is difficult and quiet. The insides are the most powerful at the time of this writing. Uses an Intel Core i9-7980XE processor. This is an 18-core (!) Model, which works in tandem with two monstrous Nvidia GeForce GTX 1080ti, each with 11GB of video memory. “Operatives” also did not regret - 64GB DDR4 memory operating at 2666 MHz. The only thing that is not very striking is the disk system. Here "only" 2 TB hard drive and 512 GB SSD.

What about performance? It is enough for the eyes of even the most demanding gamer. In all tested games in 4K resolution and at maximum graphics settings, the fps counter did not fall below 45-50. And in games with SLI support, it even reached values ​​of 110-120 frames per second. The only drawback of the assembly, as we have said, is a very high price tag - not everyone is ready to give about 400 thousand rubles for the system unit.

2 MSI Vortex G65VR 7RE

Another ready-made assembly MSI turned out in the best spirit of the company - beautiful and hot. For blowing responsible single turbine in the upper part of the body. Air passes through the bottom and comes out on top.

Ports abound: 4x USB 3.0, 2x USB Type-C, 2x RJ-45 (you can connect two providers at once to ensure uninterrupted Internet) and HDMI. The Intel Core i7-7700 processor is already familiar to you. The video card is relatively simple - GeForce GTX 1070 with 8 GB of video memory. RAM 16 GB. This is a DDR4 dice operating at 2400 MHz. HDD for 1 TB + SSD with a capacity of 256 GB.

It is difficult to say something about performance because the leader of the previous category has almost the same components, and therefore there is no significant difference in the levels of graphics and fps indicators.

1 CompDay №387

We can say that this is one of the best gaming computers at the moment. Housing Deepcool Tesseract is one of the standards of gaming cases with excellent blowing and variability in completing the cooling system. Installed Intel Core i9 processor – 7900X on a 2066 socket with 10 cores runs at 3.3 GHz in drain and accelerates to the 4.5 GHz mark. The basic version has 16 GB of RAM and can be increased to 32 and 64 GB. In all cases, will use the dies from 4 different manufacturers, but we recommend Samsung as the highest quality. The video card is one and this is a GTX 1080 Ti with 11 GB with a 352-bit bus.

The hard drive may be 1 or 2 TB from a single Seagate company. Available installation of SSD-drives with capacity from 60 to 240 GB. It should be noted that when assembling a PC according to your desire and with a surcharge, the store can replace the GTX 1080 on the RTX 2080 with all the ensuing consequences.

How to choose a system unit for a gaming computer?

The main thing in the assembly is the balance. For example, a system built on Ryzen 1600 + RX 580 + 16 GB of DDR4 RAM will be more than optimal. Take the Intel Pentium Gold + RTX 2070 and count money down the drain.
