I wanted some opinions before I make a stupid decision on buy a gaming PC.
My budget is 2.150 euros in this price shipping must be included cause its all I will spend.
Please take a look at this user's items list and tell me which one should I get for my budget with shipping included.

i'm in the same frame of mind, about to buy a gaming PC...but i'm picking from this list for anything under $1000 US...

once again, any advice from the PC Master Race...?

No listings on that user?

EDIT: Didn't click on the user whoops. I'd be wary of those bundles, none of them seem to include a PSU and a lot of them don't even have a GPU. The prices seem a little high too.



There aren't many great options on that list but this is the best of the bunch (that's not saying much).

Unfortunately with the pre-built market, most builders go balls-to-the-wall with the CPU (because it's the thing the most non PC people recognize) and then skimp out on the rest. The i7-4790 is a top tier CPU from the (only very recently) last generation of CPUs, but the GTX 760 is a low-mid tier GPU from the well-and-truly last generation of GPUs.

As a very general rule of thumb, to get a good match your GPU will end up costing about 50% more than your CPU. eg. an i5-4690 is $215, and that matches very well with a GTX 970 which is $330. By 'matches very well' I mean that they'll bottleneck at around the same time.

If you want to go for a pre-built, choose a builder that lets you customize your build. You can then pick a system with a CPU that suits your budget and change the inevitably s**t GPU to something more appropriate.

Please take a look here tell me whats the best option for me http://www.ebay.com/usr/hardwarecenter24

You have a very large budget and will be able to do quite well with it, but not from the supplier - they are overpriced. A few of us on the discord are going to work out a list of good pre-built systems from different parts of the world and for different budgets so we'll make a post in GD when we've got something.

Okay but I live in greece and plugs are different here thats why i wanted to order something from this guy's list on ebay cause hes in germany and they have same plugs + I dealt with him before could you do me a favor? check his list of items for sale and tell me which would be the best choice

Alright this one is probably what you're after. It's a very well specced system with everything matching well and good brands all around. The only thing that maybe isn't OK is the PSU (630W Bronze might be pushing it for the i7 + 390x) but as long as you don't go too nuts on the overclock you'll be fine.

I went a fair bit under your budget because you'll want to get a 4K monitor, a good mechanical keyboard and a mouse, and some nice headphones and a mic + shipping for everything.

I don't know enough about 4K monitors to give good advice but reviews are easy to find.

Kinda the same with mechanical keyboards except I've used some Duckey ones and they've been good.

I really like my Logitech G500 mouse but a mouse is a very personal decision.

With your budget try to avoid 'gaming' headsets, get a good pair of headphones (there's some very nice ones by Audio Technica) and a separate mic. Again reviews are your friend.

Hope this helped, you're going to have a beast of a machine!

EDIT: An alternative to a 4K monitor would be a 144Hz monitor. It just depends if you like super high resolution or super fast refresh rate.

Okay thank you very much, but I want to spend all my budget just for a very good tower I already have 4k monitor very good keyboard + mouse and headset what do you think about this http://www.ebay.com/itm/Gamer-PC-Intel-i7-6700K-4x4-20Ghz-16GB-PC3000-Nvidia-GTX980Ti-6GB-ASUS-STRIX-SSD-/381413482468?hash=item58ce03dfe4:g:-s8AAOSwsB9WAkQL

I see hmm but I just want to buy a system and plug it in and play, now let me ask you this if you can find a website that takes paypal as payment and build a gaming pc with my budget money + shipping included and make sure they deliver to greece I will pay you 100$ in your paypal for helping me! :D

Ah OK I just assumed you were starting from scratch. As a system, that's great... but for the price, not so much.

That set of parts costs pretty much the same but it has:
- an extra GPU
- an extra 1TB of storage
- a much better PSU
- a better motherboard

So you can see how the system you linked is very bad value, as are all of the top-end systems on that ebay.

If you are happy to pay a 500 euro premium to go with that seller, then go for it.

OP already has a 4K, keyboard, mouse, headphones etc.

Please do have another go with that in mind... Always interested to see what others come up with. (plus it's a nice budget to play with :P)

Honestly, if there are any IT people on this forum, it would be a good idea to leave your name and contact info. Pre-build the computers for people and sell them. Just a thought...

Why in the world does everyone think you need an i7 to game with? Do you guys render 3d video or edit video. Do you use the latest auto cad? For **** sake do some research before you spend that kinda money on a PC you don't need to just game on. Look at some bench test out there, and we might be surprised how far a skylake i5 or even a i3 will go when over clocked. But if you want to have a hard on for most expensive rig out there then go for it.
