Best gaming PC for ESO?

Post » Fri Jan 25, 2013 8:45 am

I'm totally new to PC gaming, so i've never really needed a good computer, but my 18th is coming up and i'm more than likely going to get an awesome pc for ESO, but i't cant be too expensive (nothing near £1000), but i want it to be able to run ESO and most other games on the highest setting...

What would you guys recommend?

minimum requirements = "normal" level.

It seems you don't need a high end pc. ;)

I would recommend not even looking now and waiting until nearer release because it is likely that new machines will be out meaning you can pick up whatever you want for less, or even buy a better one for the same price.

Judging from what I have read though you won't need a proper gaming PC (Or at least not a great/modern one), which is great because I have a PC and a laptop - the PC will need replacing but I hope the laptop won't.

If you want to build a computer,

GPU $450: http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16814125439
CPU $200: http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16819113284
PSU $90: http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16817139020
Case $120: http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16811139010
RAM $61: http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16820233184
HD $80: http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16822148840
Motherboard $190: http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16813128545
Optical Drive $16: http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16827151256

TOTAL: $1207

You can easily lower the budget by getting a less expensive GPU/Case/RAM, but if you want the "Best Gaming PC" you must go with this setup or similar.

I'd wait until the game is released or near release to get the most for your money. Worry more about your internet connection... "lag kills". If you need to upgrade your modem/router do that first.

I think you need around the £700 mark and you will be able to max out this game.
