cheap gaming pc that will run games at 1080p

abdurrahmaan · Aug 4, 2015

Hi,

I want to build a cool gaming pc with a budget of around £350. I will want top end games to run at 1080p and a high frame rate. I want a ssd aswel as an internal hard drive. The reason the price is quite low is that I need to buy a cheap gaming keyboard and mouse. Preferably I would want the case to have a see through panel and for it to look very cool (led lighting?)

Hi mate, try this site, it is Nottingham

For around £350 you can get a half decent machine.
For £380 you could get a fx 6300 and a R9 370 which should run most, if not all current games at 1080p on medium/high settings or above.
I am not connected to this shop but it is the best value I have found in the UK.

Mercian :

You need to recheck the prices just the 4300 with a 750 card is over 350 without a operating system. For sure no SSD and not going to run high end games in 1080p with high FPS

I have (calculated) this.
. AMD FX 6350 3.9 GHz,
. Asrock 960GM-VGS3 FX,
. 8GB DDR3 Kingston 1600 single module,
. Integrated Sound Card,
. Manufacturer Supplied Cooler,
. DVD+/- RW - 22X Samsung SATA,
. 500GB S-ATAIII Hard Drive 6.0Gb/s,
. No Secondary Hard Drive,
. AMD R7 370 (2048MB PCI Express DDR DVI),
. No Monitor,
. CiT 2206 Black Midi Case No PSU,
. 500W PSU with 12cm Fan,
. No Operating System I Will Install My Own.,
. No Software,
. 12 Months Warranty,
. In Store Collection,
. Payment by Debit Card,

£ 380.25

Agreed no OS. They are a lot cheaper elsewhere. You can pick up a genuine copy of Windows 7 for £25 or re install an old copy if not OEM. PSU could do with upgrading though.

This is literally the absolute cheapest PC I have ever designed, but this might run some games at medium settings at a decent frame-rate, assuming you have a copy of windows. But a budget like that isn't going to get you the kind of performance you are looking for. I would go for a 500-600 dollar build at least. By the way, an ssd and hdd isn't even feasible with that budget, so I opted for a hybrid drive instead.

I left room for you to chose your own case, but a 960 should give you enough room to play games at high fps and decent resolutions. The ssd is small is size but is great for an OS drive while the hdd is used for mass storage.
