Best Cheap Gaming PC Desktop Package Guide November 2018
We have put together a guide where we highlight our best cheap gaming PC desktop picks, starting from the cheapest to the most expensive gaming desktop recommended.
CYBERPOWERPC Gamer Ultra GUA882 Review – The Cheapest
The Cyberpower GUA882 is an excellent choice that suits more than just entry level gamers. Despite it’s price it can deliver up to high standards and deal with most games at 1080p. It has a 7 colour LED strip and a tempered glass panel that lets the PC glow nicely in the dark. On the inside of this desktop we find graphics and processing powered by AMD, and it does a quite good job for those who aren’t that spoiled or don’t want to dig too deep in their pockets. There is also room in the chassi for further upgrading. On the downside, it can run slightly hot and the mouse and keyboard that comes with the package is of lower quality. You will found our comprehensive keyboard guide here and for our mice guide click here.
However, for the money we rate this product as highly valuable as it delivers enough performance for most entry gamers out there.

SkyTech ArchAngel GTX 1050 Ti Review – A Cheap Fighter
The Skytech Archangel has an indeed a quite cheap price to be a gaming laptop, however that dosen’t hinder it from doing a very good job. Buying this desktop will give you a responsive, capable system in a well-designed shape. The design is eye catching with it’s tastefully combined colors of the white chassi and blue LED lightning glowing up the inner structure of the gaming system. Few competitors in the same price range can keep up with regards to gaming performance as well as the build quality. It might not be able to compete with the more expensive gaming rigs, but it will definitely satisfy most needs of a regular gamer. Ideally we would have wanted to see VR capability and possibly a SSD disc for quicker transfer speeds.

CYBERPOWERPC Gamer Xtreme GXIVR8020A5 Review – A Performer
The VR Ready Cyber Power PC Gamer Xtreme is another desktop providing extremely high value for the money. Unlike most entry-level gaming systems, this PC is able to provide crisp 1440p performance. Considering it’s power, this is one of the best deals we have seen. The tower is of standard size meaning that you will definitely be able to find competitors at a smaller size today, however the design is something a gamer would rather want to show up than be ashamed of. With this case there is also room for equipment upgrade. We would however have liked to see a SSD storage for faster data transfer speeds.

SkyTech ArchAngel GTX 750 Ti Review – Our Best Performer
As long as you are a not user that require extremely high performance, the SkyTech ArchAngel GTX 750 Ti will most likely do the job. It’s high performance is delivered very much thanks to it’s high end processor and CPU that can handle even hardcore gaming and demanding softwares. Same as for the previously mentioned PC, the desktop has ability for further component upgrading, for example with a GeForce GTX 960 graphics card if needed. Same as for the GXIV8020A5 desktop, we would have liked to see a SSD storage for faster data transfer speeds. The build quality of the Skytech Archangel GTX 1050 Ti is rigid and it’s design is eye catching and appealing with it’s white chassi combined with the blue LED lightning that clearly glow up the inner structure of the gaming system.
