Sometimes on weekends when I have free time, I go onto PC builders’ websites and put together disgustingly expensive gaming PCs and then close the browser when I get to the “order now” page.<\/p>\n

It’s fun, and, as a console gamer, I always marvel at component prices of high-end hardware.<\/p>\n

For those of you in a rush, though, these builders also offer pre-built gaming rigs at varying prices.<\/p>\n

We had a look at a few local sites and put together a roundup of some sweet gaming PCs on sale at the moment.<\/p>\n
