What’s in a gaming PC setup?

Gaming tower
A tower computer is the center of a gaming PC setup. Gaming computers need fast CPUs and graphics cards in order to render clear images and fluid video on the screen. A gaming PC should also have superior cooling mechanisms to prevent CPUs and GPUs from overheating. Ample amounts of RAM are essential for avoiding bottlenecks – 8GB is the bare minimum, while 16GB of RAM is preferred for processing-intensive games.

Monitor
The right gaming monitor can provide a more immersive, pleasurable and competitive experience. Monitors with faster refresh rates eliminate screen tearing and stuttering when rendering images and video. Displays with the lower response times let players see and respond to images on the screen more quickly. Dual monitors provide more screen real estate, while curved monitors offer a more immersive view. 4K monitors and OLED monitors produce images with exceptional clarity, higher contrast ratios, stunning colors and jaw-dropping detail.

Headset
A headset is essential for communicating with other players in multiplayer games. Headsets also let you take in every sound in the game as it was meant to be heard.

Keyboard
The best keyboards allow for faster key presses and personalization through programmable keys.

Mouse
A customizable mouse with vibration and quick clicking capabilities can provide a competitive edge.
