Hey everyone. I am looking on buying a new desktop computer and I need some recommendations. The current laptop I have is an Alienware x14 with a Nvidia GeForce gt 555m graphics card. So, I am looking for something way better than that. Budget is around 1k-1.5k
The oyer machine, has a graphics card so good you need to take it to anartica to cool it. It runs minecraft on 2 billion fps with every setting on the max, and you could run 60 gta's at one time on it. Costs 20 gajaliions$
*visions of my shitty desktop computer flash through my head* but seriously if I had that money I would be continuing my quest for a car instead of buying a computer
I'm in bed on my phone but when I wake up I'm bombarding you with build recommendations. For now, I will leave you with this: Build your own PC. It's easy. Do NOT buy prebuilt. Do NOT go anywhere near Alienware ever again.
I do want to build my own PC but I am 12, like stated. I have never built one but I could possibly ask me dad he is a specialist in computer building.
Well I understand. I have taken a look at a prebuilt PC. Don't freak out yet. I have reviewed the specs of it and it is much better than my current one.
Okay, I don't think you realise how jealous I am of this build.

You don't have much spare cash in the budget for peripherals though, but I'm sure you can go above the budget by around $50 to get a basic set.
Soooooo much better. Once you have all the parts and if the build goes without a hitch, it should take you 3ish hours.
