A good gaming pc for little money?

25

It will soon be my birthday and I would like to have a gaming PC that uses little money. With little money is not 20 euro, I'm already aware that there will be no such thing xD

I thought about 200-500 euro. In any case not a thousand! Would be nice if you could give me some recommendations.

You should be able to stream / record lag-free on the PC and also play games such as Minecraft, Fortnite, Gta, Raft, arc, overwatch, etc. (Even so that the games can be streamed and would not be in the middle of the stream)

Thanks for everyone who went out of their way to read this ^^

If you want to stream the games lag-free, especially fortnite, raft or arc, you should pay more than 500.

Pa

Can you have one built together? Or buy a used one

Br

As long as he does not play on max graphics settings, 500 euro are feasible (without monitor)

pa

Depends on what you call lag-free. If you play in fortnite on the lowest settings and also stream on low quality, you still can't achieve 60fps with it, at least not constantly.

Streaming and gaming at the same time is scarce with a budget of 500 euro, more if you have a console and only use the PC for streaming

Br

But. Are you talking about ready-made pieces?

pa

No, of course assembled by myself. I had a pc at that time 1000 euro, (now about 750) and I had it with me when I was still playing fortnite, especially in competitive lobbies where at the end 60 people are in one spot short-term drops below 60 fps. Otherwise it was so constant 120-160 (as I said without stream)

So under 500 euro is more than sporty, especially since you also want to stream. I would think about streaming again and maybe make a little smear there.

In itself it is possible to build such a PC for around 500 euro, but of course you shouldn't have too high requirements, but smooth Full HD gameplay at 60fps is easily possible with the games, at the latest if you adjust the settings.

There's not really a good ready-made PC at the price, I would definitely prefer to build it myself, since you pay at least 100 euro for assembly with ready-made PCs.

So I would take a Ryzen 5 3600 or 7 2700x to stream the 7er but for gaming the 5er definitely not an Intel. Then a B450 motherboard, for example the B450 Tomahawk Max and then 16Gb Gskill Ripjaws 3200 Mhz and as a graphics card a bit worse than an Rx 570/580 8gb or, if you want something better, an RX 5700XT. No NVIDIA in the price segment just too expensive and with AMD you have Relive so you can stream and record and you need a lot less power than with OBS. You have to know the case yourself and for the power supply I would use at least 600 watts. If you have any questions just ask. Hope I could help you.

Have a Ps4 only this is unfortunately too loud since I have a normal one. How do you stream on the console with the PC?

pa

Then he also needs a capture card…

Un

You have to install a capture card in the PC and then a cable from the PS4 to this capture card and then from the capture to the monitor

je

OK. Sounds really complicated xD

Br

My little brother streams FN on high settings on his 2/3 year old homemade PC (600 euro)

Br

Think that will be nothing with 500 euro

pa

I would like to see how much fps he has…

pa

Especially expensive. You can count on 150 euro again

Br

I don't know his monitor manages 60 and he falls below it.

er

If he gets a cheaper Graka you can do everything except Graka on Ca. 450 euro come. And you can still save money

er

The main thing is that he has clever Internet and relives her then it works

Br

You forget the case, power supply, ram, cooling and hard drive

je

To stream, I will not make a line because I have a lot of fun. I sometimes stream with a PC that is really out of date Minecraft and there it is mostly lag free. It just has to be enough for Minecraft and Fortnite for the first time ^^

Thank you for the answer!

I'll take a look at how and what can be done there: 3

er

If you have no more money you can take the boxed cooler, there are good 600 watt power supplies for 50 euro the ram is not particularly expensive and you can also buy a 500 gb ssd for around 30 euro. I have put together PCs in the price segment often enough for people. You just have to search and not order on Amazon

For Minecraft and Fortnite, this should also be possible in principle, both of which are not too demanding for the CPU.

But I would recommend you to save some more, then you don't have to compromise. Otherwise as an example for around 500-600 euro in self-construction:

The parts are a little more expensive than you think! You can't pack the components in a 500 euro PC
