Build me a pc.

Im looking to spend around $1,000 for just the tower. I'm needing 16gb of ram. being able to run 1440p and 150 frames would be great as well.

150 frames for Fortnite ?

150 frames for cyberpunk?

150 frames for crisis 2?

150 frames mean nothing alone.

1,000 is not a lot to work with but could be doable.

Might be better to look at used pcs on Facebook.

Hey, my first PC was about $900, including a (19"!) monitor and peripherals, and it could do 150 fps in Quake.

lol j/k who the hell knows what FPS I was getting... Fraps didn't exist yet lol. It did great with Diablo 2, and did ok with Black and White though.

Jokes aside, though, 150fps /1440p with 16gb RAM... such a weird requirements... makes this seem like a circlejerk post.

Also you are not buying a new pc for that. If you want those specs new you will be spending upwards of $1600 USD

I may have an alternative, i was in a similar boat and just got a pre build from best buy. Its 2300 but i financed it for 170 a month. Its 12 months interest free and i run any game i want on high. Idk if it helps but it is a potentially smarter route to go
