    Help with new PC

    Hey

    So i'm hoping to upgrade to a better computer in the next couple of months from my old Mac. The problem is I don't really know anything about computers.

    I'm looking to spend between £700-£800 ($1300) on a PC and while most people would say "build it yourself" thats kind of a problem when I'm completely ignorant of pretty much everything PC related.

    My question is, is there any PCs i can buy that are worth their price? All i'm looking for is to be able to do stuff like raid in WoW on ultra with 45-60 fps, and play everywhere else 60+ fps. Could anyone point me in the right direction please?

    I googled it and found a few PCs in my price range, so if you guys could check them and see if they're good or not that would be great too

    To be frank no PC you can buy is worth the price they charge to have it prebuilt. Its stupidly easy just like putting legos together and fun. You said you wont be buying it for a bit so spend that time learning how to. There are thousands of written and youtube guides a google search will pop up.

    If you would spend 800 quid on parts then you could get really good machine, but if you want same thing but build by someone else you gonna need to pay 200-300 pounds more ...

    If you want to save money really watch some youtube PC building videos - this is really simply to do, and you can save a lot of money, not only by building machine by yourself, but also whenever you gonna need to upgrade, or change anything with PC you will not need someone to charge you 20-30 pounds for connecting 2 cables ...
