What to expect from a £1000 gaming PC
This is the range where a build stops making compromises. Here is what goes into a gaming PC under £1000:
High-performance processors (CPU)
Our systems use powerful CPUs from the latest AMD Ryzen and Intel Core line-ups. Expect:
- Fast single-core performance for high FPS
- Excellent multicore capability for streaming
- Smooth gameplay in modern titles at 1080p
- Strong upgrade options for future-proofing
Typical options around this price include Ryzen 5 and Core i5 processors, ideal for a balanced, high-value gaming machine. Most builds in this range are AMD.
RAM: Minimum 16GB for demanding games
Every gaming PC under £1000 includes at least 16GB of RAM, giving you:
- Smooth multitasking
- Fast load times
- Better performance in open-world and modern games
You can also upgrade to 32GB for heavy workloads, streaming, or enhanced future-proofing.
Graphics cards (GPU): where the money goes
Under £1000 the graphics card is the single biggest decision, and it is where we concentrate the budget. Expect:
- High settings at 1080p across modern titles
- Well over 100 FPS in competitive games
- Enough headroom to raise settings rather than lower them
- A standard slot and power headroom, so the card is the easiest thing to upgrade later
Some builds in this range use integrated graphics instead, which suits The Sims 4, Roblox and similar titles, and keeps the price down if you plan to add a card later.
Fast and spacious storage options
Choose from:
- NVMe SSDs for ultra-fast boot and load times
- Optional HDDs for large game libraries
- Silent, efficient operation
Your PC arrives fully optimised and ready to install your favourite games instantly.
Cases and cooling: Built for style and airflow
Our cases combine visual appeal with thermal efficiency:
- Clean, modern designs
- RGB or minimalist options
- Optimised airflow layouts
- Quiet cooling for intense sessions
- Room for future upgrades
Your PC runs cool and quiet, even during long sessions.
Pair with a high-quality gaming monitor
These builds are tuned for 1080p, so a fast 1080p panel will show you every frame the machine produces. A higher resolution screen would leave performance on the table.
