A guide to gaming PCs at AO
Whether you’re big into RPGs or prefer an FPS, gaming PCs are made up of important parts to make your experience more immersive. The CPU, or processor, is the brains of the operation and this decides how it’ll run demanding titles. The Intel® Core™ i7, Intel® Ultra 7, and AMD Ryzen™ 7 are great all-rounders for smooth, lag-free gaming. The GPU is your graphics card, and this handles all the visuals. High-end options like the NVIDIA GeForce RTX 4060 and AMD Radeon RX 5080 XT offer stunning visuals and support ray tracing. Don’t forget about RAM as that’ll power through load times and make gameplay smoother. The higher the RAM, the more it can do.
Find the perfect addition to your party
The best gaming PC is the one that can handle the types of games you want to play and fits your budget. If you’re playing the latest AAA title with an expansive map and next-level graphics, you’ll need a powerhouse of a PC. Whereas if you prefer indie titles and classic gaming, you won’t need anything as high-tech.
Also, think about whether you want to take your quests on the road. Gaming laptops are more expensive, but offer portability, but if you’re not going anywhere, you may as well grab a gaming desktop. Not only do they give you more for your money, but you can upgrade your kit more easily with these models. And if you’re not sure what to go for, we have a gaming laptop buying guide and another for gaming desktops that you can check out.
