Need new computer

[holosmith]

Looking for a new computer that can be pre-built or custom built.

Budget: $700-$900.
Prefer AMD/ATI this time around for CPU/GPU. Not sure what the market is currently or what's good. Heard Intel isn't doing very well.
If going down the pre built option what are good brands? Been looking at Lenovo and HP gaming desktops.

Only games I care about running are WoW, LoL, and GW2.

If you decide to build the computer yourself. AMD GPUs right now are just too expensive. Things you can change around. Upgrade from the 1300x to a 1600. Get a nicer looking supply or Case. But this is a decent base in your price range. If your looking for a prebuilt, https://www.walmart.com/ip/CYBERPOWE...luded/55721490 Isn't bad however, the self built will be much better. If your looking to customize, i believe ibuypower would be the cheapest right now.

Also, Intel isn't bad, Intel is doing some really poor reacting to AMD. Intel is falling behind in the High-end desktop market (2000$+) Ryzen is very close to intel in the home desktop market but intel is just a little bit ahead. Nvidia vs AMD, they're not too different. If you have a freesync monitor, try to find a GPU (480,580,570) bundled with another computer component as theyre still overpriced, more so that nvidia due to the cards being very good for crypto mining.

(Just saw your edit. If your just playing those three games and dont add a ton of storage stuff to your computer, like person files, drop the 1TB storage drive. Take the money from that and the extra room in your budget and try to either get a 1060 6GB or a 580 8GB.)

If his budget was bigger i'd agree but with that budget, Ryzen will be better in the long term.

Thank you!

Just curious, but if I had to choose an AMD GPU what do you recommend?

the RX 570 580 or 480. I just cant really recommend them right now. The supply is just so small that they're big time overpriced. The 1050ti really is the best performance per dollar right now. Sadly until the miners let go of their cards.

But that was not he's point. But i do agree with you on the budget, but Intel is not doing bad at all

As Teamkiller says. The AMD GPUs are to high in price right now because of the crypto mining and the Nvidia highend cards are allso overpriced right now

Yep, Yep. We both corrected that lol.
