@maxszy: I have heard in the time since Fall of 2010, when I last bought the computer I am working with for 2k (and given I've since spent only 400$ for a 960 4 gig Graphics card and it runs every single game that is released at 'minimum (which is all I require) its been a good investment)..I've heard of websites like that.
When the time comes for me to get a new PC, and I have the 1200-2000$ set aside to purchase it, I'm going too go looking again. I'll likely put up a post in the PC section of this very forum, which has provided good advice to me before. I've found so long as I preface such requests as "Look I know building it myself is better, I prefer to eat the cost of having someone else do that however" At which point I am gonna play the "So what websites that provide pre-built computers have people heard good things/had good experiences with?
Believe me if I could get a state of the art water-cooled dual-titan 32 memory next-level CPU, uber monitor 'insert everything that you would need to build 'the best possible PC at this time'..and have someone else put it all together, guarantee the work and shipping safety. Well then, I'd happily pay a premium for that.
That said, I absolutely know I can get "Mid-High tier" pre-builts for around 2k. Which, while they are never designed specifically for gaming, do tend to come with the CPU and Memory power that is going to meet the 'minimum requirements' of every PC game released for the next 5-7 years. And, truth be told, my current PC's CPU is under-rated for most new games..but it runs them all the same.
So yah. I am sure when the time comes I will look into websites exactly like what you said. I don't expect that to happen however until we get announcements for the PS5/XBOX..2? and so on in a few years, on account of most PC games having to run at the 'console minimum". Meaning so long as my PC can keep up with current gen consoles (in this case the base level Xbox or PS4) I know I'm not going to run into 'welp, I have to buy a console if I wanna play this game cause my PC won't run it" issues.
