What's a good gaming PC that doesn't go over $1,000?
If there isn't a prebuilt one, are there any suggested builds that reach my budget, or will I have to go over?

Get a gaming laptop mate, they're the way of the future

spend it on the gpu
its the only part that's really doing anything

there is some digging shit going on recently (again) and decent gpus' price went over the roof from what I heard. Mayby it's good idea to wait a little

Bad time to be building a gaming PC since mining fags have inflated the price.

So I'm stuck with my laptop until the prices drop?

Go with AMD, and you'll easily get a PC that can handle every modern game at 1080p 60fps for under $1000, starting from scratch.
If you want, I can go into more specific details.
I built mine for $1200, and used 0 deals/sales

Unless you get lucky. Or you can buy an older generation card that will still get good 1080p frames

>Radeon RX 470
>AMD FX 8350
>generic disc drive
>WD Blue 1TB hdd
>corsair carbide spec 02
>EVGA 500w
I don't think I missed anything
oh and
>one of those storage trays for the extra disc drive slot

You got all that for $1200?

Building a PC for the first time myself. It's hard trying not to fuck something up but it's also pretty fun. I don't like having to buy a VGA to DVI adapter however.

Real talk: just check slickdeals or the buildapcsales subreddit for prebuilts/ or gpus. I've caught a few reasonable deals these last few months even with the mining shortages.

are you new at computers?

Yeah man, I've been on a laptop since 2009.
It's alright for games that aren't heavier than a feather.

What do you mean by "mining fags"?

Etherium crypto currency miners have bought up all the mid range GPUs, as they have the best price/performace for mining. It's hiking the prices of all cards, pretty much

HAHAHAHA thanks to the aetherium shitfest, you'll need $1500+ right now to get the performance of a $800 build a month ago, sorry brah. If I were you, I'd just wait for Xbone X; 60fps@4k for $500. That's literally better than any $1000 pc you can build right now.

Last time I checked (Sandy/Ivy Bridge Intels generation) AMD cpus was way worse than Intels at least for gaming. (for more or less the same price), Did it change by now? I wouldn't mind if it did, competition never harms buyers

This is true, but you could also build now, and get an older gtx 970 and wait for this to blow over. In a few months, there will be a plethora of cheap RX 480's on ebay.

why? those are highly abused cards
I'd feel safer buying a lottery ticket

The kids that weren't smart enough to invest in Etherium coins several months ago so now they're trying to ride the bubble by mining for coins.

You know, this inflation makes me want to become a miner fag

Buy xfx, get lifetime warranty.

I wouldn't keep it forever, either. But it'll last long enough for you to upgrade.

Yeah, if you want to destroy your computer

The real money seems to be in reselling cards. I sold my 480 I bought in march for 115, on ebay for 400 and straight traded it up for a GTX 1080.
