5 essential features to look for when buying a Gaming PC

Once upon a time, back in the day like in the dinosaur era, people thought gaming was ‘just for kids.’  Now, adults of all ages have been keen users and are glued to their keyboards and controllers, turning gaming into one of the fastest-growing entertainment industries on the planet. So why sit on the sidelines? If you’re dreaming of building your own epic gaming zone, these 5 features will make the whole process so much easier.

Before satisfying that thrilling urge of buying a gaming PC, look out for the essential features

Gone are the days of stressing over which PC parts to buy. Today, you can build your own gaming rig and customize it exactly the way you want: style, performance, and all of it. In order to do so, here are the features you need to look out for

1. Graphic card: This is the most essential one when it comes to gaming. A lower setting can work with the older versions of a few games. But the newer generation ones will need a higher powered card with better inputs. But here is a drawback: A top-tier GPU can be pricey. So when buying a gaming PC, remember this: no matter the overall cost, invest in a quality GPU — you won’t regret it.

2. A powerful CPU: Along with a good GPU, the power of the CPU matters too. The processor needs to be strong: a modern multi‑core CPU with high clock speeds ensures games run smoothly, alongside multitasking, background apps, streaming. Look for CPUs that supports new standards like DDR5 RAM, PCIe 5.0, etc.

3. Storage: The games you will be playing will take up a lot of space in the computer and will eventually end up hurting the storage space. So, in order to have your PC run smoothly, buy something that has 2 TB+ storage drive.

4. Cooling system: The higher the size of the file, the hotter the system gets and we all have experience in that. So, in order to prevent your system from heating up use the higher versions of cooling. Regular in-build fans won't do the trick so use liquid coolers that top-of-the-line gaming PCs offer.

5. RAM: Despite having the best of the storage system or higher SSD, your PC can give up on you if RAM is not enough. Having a minimum size of 16 GB is recommended when it comes to storage.
