BEST Gaming PC
GeekaWhat will be guiding the Readers to build the best gaming PCs for all budgets and resolutions.For a budget of $1000, GeekaWhat recommends AMD’s RX 6650 XT as the GPU.
The RX 6650 XT is one of the best options for a $1000 build.GeekaWhat suggests using Intel’s i5-13400F CPU, which costs $209.The CPU and the GPU will take up around $500-$600 of the total build budget.
To complete the build, you will need a motherboard, cooler for the CPU, memory, SSD, case, and power supply.For the motherboard, a B760 motherboard, or a more expensive Z790 is required.
GeekaWhat recommends going for the cheaper Gigabyte motherboard that has Wi-Fi.The recommended memory is 16GB of DDR4 memory with low latency.
The Corsair Vengeance RGB Pro is GeekaWhat’s preferred choice.For the SSD, a Gen 3 NVMe drive is recommended, and GeekaWhat likes the Samsung SSD 980.
The recommended power supply is 650W.The Corsair CX650M is a great power supply that’s usually reasonably priced.
Assembling the build

With all the components necessary for the build listed, you should have around six items in your basket.The total cost for the six items should be around $700.
You will need to add an SSD, case, and power supply to the basket.GeekaWhat recommends a 500GB Samsung SSD 980 for the SSD.
For the case, you can choose any case you like, as long as it can accommodate the motherboard and the GPU.The recommended power supply is 650W, and you can choose any power supply that suits your budget.
Make sure to check the compatibility of all your components before checking out.

CPU and GPU pairing is important to avoid bottlenecks16GB RAM is good for low to mid-range builds while 32GB RAM is recommended for higher-end builds
Power supply selection depends on wattage requirements and desired featuresBeyond that, component selection is based on personal preference
Choosing a case
