New computer and extras help

[Ason]

Hey guys, I'm thinking of buying a new computer strictly for PR but I have no idea where to look for one or what to look for.

All I know is I know nearly nothing about computers but I need one for PR and the price can be as high as ~$1000.

So basically does someone know any websites that ships good pre-built computers?
I would also appreciate it if someone could show me one or more options(advice on screens would also be very nice)
Thanks in advance.

PR likes fast CPU's one of the few games where an 4.4Ghz (turbo or OC) i7 4790k maybe worthwhile over a much cheaper i5 4690k which is 3.9 Ghz. But PR is not going to use 4 cores, but most other games will/are. For JUST PR a G3258 pentium is the best deal but needs to be overclocked - its only 60euros not 200!
Mobo's IMO doesn't matter get good brand Z97 so overclock option and higher quality components other than that its size, features and looks.
64 bit OS with 8GB of ram's great.
Graphics card not too sure what'll run on full everything but cheapest that'll run well is a GTX 750(Ti) after that not too sure as PR is old and can be odd with some cards.
Decent brand PSU 550w or above
AN SSD is great for the OS and any games really fast loading 125GB just enough 250 OK, plus you might get a 'normal' HD for all your stuff.
Case - who cares.

Screen wise I think a 22-24 HD 1920x1080 is good if you aren't watching movies from afar Samsung syncmaster seem favored, but again 4k (UHD need $$$ graphics card too) in that size are close but prices unknown as of yet.

This PC should last years, in that time you may well play other more modern games, for example Squad as a much newer game would like a much better graphics card $$$$.

Bear in mind win 10 will be out next month isn't it July 26th? It seems a big improvement from 8.1. Also a new range of intel processors and motherboards are coming soon probably August/September, at the moment feature and speed wise they don't seem a big deal, but prices of older parts should go down.

Wait for more info on graphic cards and maybe another Swedish person knows a good shop.
Building yourself really isn't hard at all. What is your current machine?

[Ason]

Thanks Ploddithanley! I have never built my own computer so I'm more in need of links to pre-built computers that I can just order. I know building it yourself is much better but I have no idea how to or how complicated it is..

The thing is I want a new computers that can run modern games but it should also be good for PR.
Maybe someone can recommend their own rig or a website that builds custom computers.

Price is not really a problem but it should be around $1000.

If you can handle this, then build your own computer

[Cossack]

Go for challenge and build it yourself. Like pre-built systems from my experience are meh unless you have choose the parts yourself.

Everything has its first time

[Ason]

Actually looks quite fun, I might do it, only problem is I have absolutely no idea what components to choose..

I'll look around at other posts but if you have some knowledge about these things please don't hesitate to give me advice. Also still haven't found a good website for this, maybe someone can recommend a good one that ships to Sweden.

Ason, I'll help you as much as i can if you promise to finish Grozny map for PR1.4

All I ask is that you find some websites in Sweden that sell PC components, so we can figure out prices in Krones.

PM me any time.
