Gaming Desktops

With a gaming desktop, you can easily upgrade in order to enjoy significant power that can handle today's most popular PC games. While you can still use your new gaming PC to surf the internet, browse photos, access social networks and more, the premium performance is ideal for video games. Learn more about picking the best gaming computer for you.

A key feature in a gaming computer is the ability to quickly process data. A variety of factors can contribute to a lack of responsiveness from your computer, which can lead to critical errors when gaming. Some components to consider are system memory, also called random access memory (RAM), and processing power. Working together, these determine how fast you can run applications. Another important element is a graphics card built to quickly render high-quality images so you'll enjoy smoother frame rates with far less graphical lag. Together, these can deliver the optimal performance you're looking for when playing games. If you have a system built to handle virtual reality, you can also add a VR headset for a 360-degree audio/visual experience that propels your senses into a new world.

You'll also find a wide variety of accessories and components to create the best gaming desktop setup for your needs. For a far smoother look in the games you play, consider pairing a gaming tower with a 4K UHD monitor. Currently the highest resolution available, 4K monitors contain 4x as many pixels as similarly sized Full HD monitors, which widens your field of vision tremendously.

If you plan on doing a lot of serious gaming, you'll want a gaming keyboard that makes the most of each keystroke. Features like mechanical switches, RGB lighting and macros are all designed to aid in accuracy.

To help prevent damage to your components, consider upgrading your PC gaming computer's power supply unit. Features like over-voltage, under-voltages, over-power and short-circuit protection are intended to keep your critical system components safe.

And to create a comfortable space during marathon sessions, add a dedicated gaming chair to your setup. You'll find options with adjustable recline, adjustable armrests and more for a custom seating arrangement.
