Hi, I’m looking for recommendations for gaming PC under $2.5k. Don’t need monitor. Aim is to play Diablo 4. Possible? Or are laptops a better way to go?

Thanks in advance

      I don’t understand IT / computer stuff. Have a good day.

    You tell us OP. We don't know what your situation is.

    Need portability? Laptop. Don't need portability? Desktop.

    Always a good idea to start with a search on OzBargain…

    Honestly the prebuilt deals on this website can be really good.

    Something like this

    Is amazing value and it leaves you some budget to add in some more ram and storage if you need it and even a cpu cooler like the thermalright peerless assassin 120 or similar with the spare budget.

    Some other good deals but yeah unless you want to enjoy the experience of building you can get a system ready to go asap with these prebuilts fairly cheaply

        If you go the pre-built route, make sure you get a decent PSU.

        A cheap PSU can be an unending stream of headaches. I've helped diagnose issues multiple times with symptoms such as failed or corrupted storage.

        Most recently, a friend had a pre-built from an Ozbargain deal that wouldn't start. It turned out it had a trash tier PSU that had failed.

        No problem I got my prebuilt from BPC Tech in October 2022 and it has been great so far I just need to get around to putting in a better CPU cooler than the stock one it has on it already.

        And yeah definitely check the prebuilt specs for the psu mine was a decent evga so I'm happy.

        I just need to find someone who is willing to travel out to me near blue mountains who is willing to do a bunch of CPU cooler upgrades and install my SSD's for a nice price.

    Techfast prebuilts! The 1% chance of a bad experience is worth the savings
