This PC is very much geared for gaming, and it performed admirably in our tests. If you want even better gaming performance you can upgrade to a better specification, along with adding an SSD and more Ram.
This mid-sized desktop is a great option for a reasonable price. It looks great and delivers excellent performance for all the tasks you'd expect a computer to be able to perform, from document editing right up to photo manipulation.
This sleek desktop computer is fairly large, but it packs a decent punch when it comes to speed thanks to its Core i5 processor and 256GB SSD. A good choice for the money

It just missed out on a Best Buy, but this basic bargain PC is well worth a look. Its Core i3 processor is more than fast enough for the basics and there's oodles of storage, too. Plus, it looks sleek. It loses out because the supplied keyboard and mouse are poor.
This PC just misses out on a Best Buy but is still worth a look thanks to its reasonable price. It's fast and looks great, although the speakers aren't brilliant and the supplied keyboard and mouse should be a bit better.
We test desktop PCs more thoroughly than anyone else
Our tests go further than those carried out by other organisations, and because Which? is independent and does not accept advertising or freebies, you can trust our reviews to give you the full, honest and impartial truth about a product.
When we're testing desktop PCs at the Which? lab, we make sure that the tests we're running represent the sort of things you'll be doing with your new PC. So whilst we do the things you've expect, such as benchmarking tests to check how powerful these machines are, we also record how long it takes to boot up, or transfer data from a USB - tasks that we all do everyday.
To discover the benefits take a sign up to Which? and you'll receive access to all our online content.
