Gaming PC Deals & Offers

Nothing deal about this.

This is colder than the weather outside...

Only 8gb ram, no ssd drive. It's freezing In here.

For that crazy price I'd AT LEAST want to see some liquid cooling on the 2080!

What other platform can I play in 4K at 120hz with HDR and a variable refrsh rate?

4k gaming on PC why?

Maybe everyone's just having a bad day!

This really should be piping hot at that price. I got the Gigabyte Windforce 2080Ti for £1100 when they came out and there's simply no other GPU like it for 4K gaming.

Looks fantastic I just saw it. The last outing (1080ti) the Aorus was hideous lol

Cheers for correcting me. I'd still buy the sapphire and a Bykski if I wanted water cooling.

A bit above my paygrade, do me a favour (lol) There is a water block for the Sapphire, which has a proper stock cooler, so you can have a proper stock cooler and add liquid cooling later if you like. However yet again you’ve assumed that people who don’t want liquid cooling are somehow poorer or inferior to those who do. So it’s really not worth my while arguing with you. Just buy what you want (y)

Because the Gigabyte cards available at the moment don't have full block covers for them either?! Why would you take offense and misrepresent a simple open ended statement? Water cooling a bit above your paygrade is it? And I'll repeat myself shall I? "Why would you advocate buying a GPU with a known bad stock cooler?" "the Strix (ROG-STRIX-RXVEGA64-O8G-GAMING) has a full block water cooler available for it, were as the Sapphire (11275-03-40G ) does not"

What a massive and ridiculous assumption... I know tons of people who spend this much on a GPU and don’t want to watercool it, myself included. Why would you advocate buying a GPU with a known bad stock cooler? Google ‘ASUS Vega strix vrm throttling’.

You can find block water cooler for the nitro, but if you're going for water cooled then why wouldn't you get the cheapest version (gigabyte?). The whole point of the nitro is to get the best non customised version. #warranty

Haha the slightest bit of difference, I'd go with 1440p 144Hz next time but the monitor i have is still amazing in it's own right :)

My original comment said without a monitor, and I sorry but 16gb of ram is plenty for gaming even at 4k and if u actually look at game play results the r5 2600 is fine for gaming even at 4k

Theres no PC at this price point that can play 4K in good enough settings and FPS. You need to spend around £1500 for a 4K Ultra 60fps+ machine. 1080p Ultra 60fps > 4K low-medium 30fps.

1080p is okay , but 4k looks better, best to build for 4k and enjoy the best quality.

That's one of the best posts I've ever read. Was genuinely thinking about buying an xbox one s for the missus since she's a keen gamer. With all that faffing around on consoles, she can stick with her pc and vr setup lol.

Same here. Couldn’t bring myself to pay the inflated Intel prices (£160 i5 8400 was £300) so got a 2700X and new board. It’s great, my old i5 2500 was bottlenecking games, the Ryzen is demolishing everything. Good to see AMD doing well again

Whats the best cheapest gaming pc out there today ? what price bracket we looking at as iv just convinced my lad that £500 is only entry level and it would be more problematic then he could imagine ( he does not know his way around a pc im even rusty these days ) i thought it pointless to blow £500 on something he would want to upgrade stright away as all games he wants to play im guessing would be power hungry ---- oh he plays ps4 and xbox 1 another games machine was at twice the cost and more of them machines i thought silly ..... anyways can £500 get you a good gaming pc or is it just a pc that can cope with a few games at that price ?

Welcome to the big time.

The overclocking argument isnt really valid since the Threadripper is also an unlocked CPU, and will arguably overclock better. If you go on any CPU comparison site you'll see the Threadripper is technically a faster CPU. I dont think infinity fabric latency will make enough of a difference there, although that is a good point. Bottom line, no-one should buy one over a 2700 though.. for several reasons.

I can't find many direct comparisons but at stock they look almost equal, overclocked the 2700 will take the lead. The 2700 doesn't have the latency penalty of the 1900 having to go across dies.

Thank you for this, i finally have 16gb due to this comment at an okay price.

eBay.

bargain, I think Maplin was selling DDR1 1gb for a similar price

Where?

funny isn't it how tech moves on wasn't that long ago we were putting a Dairy Milk Family Bar inside (:I

Only thing putting me off is the g sync monitor prices, got an rx480 and freesync monitor atm. Is screen tearing a problem if say I got this and a 1440p monitor without g sync

Got this card and coupled with at least a 6th gen quad it's 60fps on ultra all day every day for most stuff. Never gets above 65c and is as quiet as a mouse's 21st birthday party. great card.

Machine Learning I would guess.

There's 35,000 unsold 1070s on ebay so the price will come down

ML?

Tut,tut. You've missed something.

Which is why this is clearly a gaming monitor but as you suggest not a Jack of all trades.

You bought KG271 that is 75Hz. This is KG271B that is 240Hz

If doing any sort of productivity work 1080p just doesn't cut it at 27".

It also has Freesync

Yea, I was wanting an rtx card to be honest. But as usual there is no direct 1060 replacement rtx card as yet. Plus with all the bad press of cards dying plus the expense I think the 580 should sort me out for a while yet at 1080p.

Great price for a great card. I've got a 3840x1600 monitor so I need more GPU horsepower and I'm currently on a 1070ti which I paid £350 in January (when they were £500-600). It was still a steal, but the jump from an RX580 to 1070ti in horsepower isn't worth double the price

I know, I. Picked up the Sapphire special edition rx 580 8gb from Amazon 2 weeks ago for £181 absolute bargain.

I mean, you can game at 1080p on less, but given how cheap they are, why would you? There's one available now on Ebuyer for £144 including 2 games from AMD. That's like £22 more than this deal, including free shipping and 2 brand new games. You'd have to be crazy to pick the RX560 for anything over £100. At this bottom end of the product segment, the gains for every £10-20 spent are (can be) massive.

Yea, the 4gb rx 570 is the absolute minimum of go for 1080p gaming.

It's the RGB case!!! :{

You'd be surprised actually, it's only a small company and I reckon they sell atleast 10 custom built pc's a day

Sorry, I thought you were receiving it today!!! lol Aye, I saw the build times. Seems extortionate to charge such prices. I doubt they are building more than they can handle each day.

I'm glad I'm not building one for you expecting it that fast ;) haha, I ordered yesterday, they say standard build time is 4-5 working days or you can pay extra for expedited (which is a rip off... £49.99 for 2-3 working days or £79.99 for 1-2 working days (shock) ) but no rush for me so just left it on the free option :D I'd assume it'll come on Wednesday or Thursday next week

Which card came with it in the end?

It did actually have Windows 10 installed yeah even though it was supposed to come without an OS Done a bit of Fortnite streaming today just to see if it'll handle it. No problem, 180fps+ most of the time even while streaming :P

LOL!!!!!! That's funny af. Did it not come with Windows 10? I'm tempted to go back to 7. An update screwed the os and had to reinstall...apparently a common issue

I don't mean to harrass you with replies ;) But... I've figured the RAM issue. They just hadn't enabled the XMP profile in BIOS. I've done so and now running at 3200Mhz as it should. :D

The ports seem to be working fine now, must have just been a little glitch. Going to use DP on all 3 monitors. One shocking discovery though, I paid for 3200mhz Corsair Vengeance RGB RAM and it's come with Corsair Vengeance LPX RAM. The worst part, it's 2133mhz. Shocking, they should know the importance of this considering it's a Ryzen build. I can see why they've done though... the radiator for the water-cooler interferes with the RAM slots, so they've just put what physically fits in. Sneaky, anyone who doesn't know about computers probably would've never noticed. Regardless, I'll be contacting them on Monday to get it sorted, not sure what the solution is going to be yet, but I'm definitely not living with 2133Mhz RAM (lol) Another note, it's come with a Fractal Design PSU instead of a Coolermaster PSU... I'm not exactly bothered but it's just another thing that wasn't mentioned. If I'd known it was going to be this much hassle I'd have definitely built it myself -.-

Did you try with just the one? I only use dp on my main and HDMI on the secondary. Doesn't matter really, I still suck at fortnite. 🤪 I'm holding out for a 1080ti still...and likely will be for the next year lol

I have the game one sennheisser and if they need replaced I'll be getting the equivalent or upgrade from them again. This headset is almost identical specs and at this price is a storming deal

Don't believe most reviews cause most of them are sponsored. Make your own headset (dt990pro/dt770pro a good dac like schiit and u will have superior audio quality).

Ye I’ve read some of them do and are weakly made but the ARCTIS PRO GAMEDAC I’ve read is one of the best headsets around, sound quality is better than this one and also it’s made of aluminium alloy so a strong headset. From what I’ve read.

Arctis have really dull sound. They are comfy as f. Sound quality is not the best. Hyperx(mic is not good tho) and Sennheiser are probably the only two decent headset makers for "gaming". Best is always to make your own. Buy a good pair off headphones a mod mic or a boom mic and will have superior audio quality compared to any "gaming" headset. :)

How well do these work going to and from pc-ps4 and constant switching

I’ve bought a liquid cooled i5 3570k, an AsRock extreme 4 motherboard, 16gb of RAM, Nvidia 780ti graphics card, bronze rated 550w power supply, 1 tb hardrive, LED lit zoostorm gaming case, USB 3 support. A 21 inch HDMI monitor with mouse and keyboard It’s costing about £500 for that He’s already got a PS4 but would like a gaming pc

You're better off buying an Xbox one X and a 4k tv with that budget. If the £450 includes a monitor as well. That's a pretty tight budget.

im in exactly the same position, my youngest son has xbox one & he has wanted a gaming pc for a while unfortunately im on my own & money is limited. Dont want to waste money buying something that is not going to do what he wants it to...I do kno a bit about computers but havent got the time to build one myself...Hoping i find a bargain b4 xmas...

Sorry for posting in your post, but my son is looking for a gaming pc for Christmas. He’s only 11 and wants to play Fortnite, ROBLOX and quite a few steam games. He wants to stream and use office software. I’ve got about £450 maximum budget, what’s the best options for me? And kind of future proof?! Thanks for any help

PC gaming has an element that console gaming would simply not have, and that's performance on higher performing monitors. 144HZ (so up to 144 FPS on screen) is night and day above 60HZ (which is 60 fps and the limit for most TVs & consoles) to the point where you won't know what you did without it. It's an investment, but certainly worth it.
