How To Choose The Best Gamer PC

By Ann Roberts


The gaming industry is a multi-billion dollar industry with dozens of major hardware developers competing to increase their share of the market. The number of video game developers is always increasing by the day with millions of games developed. If you like playing video games, you should buy the most powerful gamer PC to ensure you enjoy the best gaming experience.

A gaming PC is just a computer like any other. The only difference is that it has higher specifications and it is primarily used for gaming purposes. However, it can still be used for word processing, accessing the internet, online shopping, watching movies, storing information and any other purpose for which computers are used.

When buying a computer for gaming, the size of the display screen should be checked. The bigger the screen the better. The screen should be able to display images in high definition. Since the gaming industry is still advancing, you may want to get a computer that can handle 3D images to accommodate your future gaming needs.

The RAM of the PC should be at least 8GB to 16GB. This is because gaming relies heavily on this temporary storage space. If you buy a computer with 2 or 4GB of RAM, you will have an inferior gaming experience. Therefore, you should take your time to check the number of slots of RAM cards exist on the motherboard as well as the installed RAM.

Data storage capacity is not a key factor of consideration when looking for a gaming PC. While you will need some storage space, what is much more important is the read/write speed of the storage medium. In that regard, you may want to buy a PC with SSD storage instead of a HDD. Alternatively, you can buy a computer with both devices, but with the SSD as the primary storage medium.

The speed of the central processing unit matters a great deal. You want the fastest CPU to meet your gaming needs, so you should look for a computer with at least 3.2GHz of processing speed. There should also be at least two CPUs that work together to process data faster. Alternatively, you can pick a computer with at least 8 processing cores (octocore).

You will need to connect several control pads to the PC to play any game. For the best gaming experience, you should choose a PC with several USB ports as well as wireless capability to ensure you can use wireless control pads to play the game. Basically, you should look at what the computer can allow you to do to ensure you can pick a PC that will give you a superior gaming experience.

Shortlisting all the computers that meet your specifications is recommended. This is because it will allow you to compare all these firms more effectively. Since you are concerned with the prices, be sure to check the prices that different vendors quote for all the computers on your list. It may also be a great idea to do some window shopping at the local mall, electronics shop, department stores and gaming outlets.
