Wait, do you need prebuilt pc or you will build it yourself?I'm confused.

Anyways, here is build
Top notch CPU for gaming, very cool high end video
So it's even under your budget, OS not included.
If you're still going for prebuilt just look for these parts (important are: CPU, video, motherbrd)

hey sorry to make you wait i cant really build a pc but u have given me a really good build 0.o do u know if CYBERPOWER build good computers because i am looking at getting one there and i can follow the things u have recommended thanks m8

 

[butremor]

Honestly no idea, but as other people said on this forum cyberpower is kinda crappy. But again, idk.
What you can do is visit local IT stores and look for prebuilt at specs i gave you.
