My Dream Gaming Computer
My Dream Gaming Computer
CPU
$284.98
This CPU is listed as one of the better processors for a gaming computer, which was my goal here. It comes with a built in cooler which is why I chose it.
Motherboard
$169.99
This is a Motherboard reccomended for gaming.
Memory
164.99
High GB and Made for gaming
Video Card
$349.99

Case
$166.99
Actually so pretty and I picked it entirely for this reason. I like the sleek look and that it will conceal my other choices, which were picked based on functionality and not design.
Power Supply
$179.99
Seemed to have the best wattage for the price.
Storage
$325.55
Has an incredible amount of storage which will be good for saving multiple games.
CPU Cooler (Some CPUs come with this)
Did Not need to get one of these as my CPU included this.
OS
No Prices Were Available for the Operating Systems
Fastest Running OS that included DVD.
Monitor
- Samsung Odyssey G9 G93SC 49.0" 5120 x 1440 240 Hz Curved Monitor
- $1599.99
- Nearly Doubled my Computer Price because I have experienced the value of having multiple screens, and this monitor covers that. A wide monitor is perfect for gaming, streaming and everything else I’d need open on my screen.

39.99
Chose this because it’s made for quick reaction times and goes with the monitor I selected

I like the style of the keyboard, it goes with the case of my computer and it’s designed for gaming

There’s a lot that goes into building a computer and ensuring the parts are compatible with each other. This process might not be for me, and I’m glad there are pre-built options out there. I focused this project on finding the best product for a new gaming computer, and chose to overlook price, and while I believe I have built a fantastic set up, the price really is out of reach.
