StarCraft II presents somewhat of an analysis problem for me, since it appears somewhat CPU-constrained at all but our lowest test resolution. Most games run into GPU-limits higher resolution.
Overclocking keeps the sub-$2000 PC on top throughout these tests, though the magnitude of that overclock may cause our readers to question whether some of its components were really worth the added cost.
As an example of why it doesn't always make sense to spend more, the $500 PC puts out 62.4 FPS at our highest StarCraft II detail levels and its target 1920x1080 resolution.
