Answer
"purchase" and "gaming computer" are both really contradictory words.
Real gaming computers are built, not purchased. Only noob-failures buy their "gaming computers" which are often overpriced and overperformed by home built ones.

BTW you're not going to find ANYTHING for 800 dollars that resembles a gaming computer.

You can build one, though:


Here's probably the best deal i found.
an OK processor. Overclock-able to around 3.2 GHZ i would say.
Top of the line Radeon Graphics card 4870... this thing is a BEAST. Built for gaming!



AMD Phenom 9950 BLACK EDITION Agena 2.6GHz Socket AM2+ SAPPHIRE Radeon HD 4870 512MB
Combo Deal $344.98

ASUS M3A78 Pro ($89.99)

You get a GREAT cooler. Sumbeam CCTF IS INSANE!!! very hard to find too. Harddrive is midline. You got FAST ram... and case/psu is on the low end.

Good gaming computer under £800?




Alex


So I've saved up roughly £800 for a good gaming computer, I mainly want one that can hold a 16gb ram and is extremely reliable for full HD gaming with no lag at all.

I already have a very good graphics card and monitor etc. I only want the pc itself so could someone please recommend me one or give me a link so a website in which ill be able to get one? I'm not to good with the in depth pc details but can understand most of it. Thanks much appreciated.

This is a beautiful CyberPowere that I am also considering buying. A $500 dollar computer seems the exact opposite of a budget, I know... That's how I feel. But this boy is ridiculously powerful, and compared to other gaming PC's with exact or lower specs, it's cheap. I like the design of its case also, but that's irrelevant.
Reading customer reviews, it seems to be very easily upgraded. One man claims he bought it, spent around $500 dollars on upgrades and software updates, and it now bests a $3000 Alienware. I like the sound of the that.

I am comparing the above mentioned with this beast. It doesn't look as pretty, and it's on Windows 7 instead of 8, but it's nearly as powerful. It's case is actually easier to open than the other one, making upgrades easier. And it's dirt cheap: $499.00. To me, that sounds like a lot of money, but like I said, PC Gaming setups can cost thousands.

So, it's really up to you. I'm leaning towards the first one. It's a extra $50 dollars, but that's not bad for a beautiful and powerful computer.
So, I hope I helped :)

Unfortunately, I don't know US to Euro conversions. I assume $500 dollars wouldn't be more than 800 in your currency. Sorry, mate.
