Are you buying Branded names (Dell, HP, Gateway, etc) or are you building your own rig?

Both will handle the game but the latter could give you the option to get better equipment for the same price or less.

Hi GLOBES, welcome to the board.

I believe if you buy either one will soon regret. I would save a couple hundreds more and build an up to date pc that can handle all games in top settings.

If you say what if I don't know how or not confident enough to build one? Well, I believe if you hang around computer forums enough and research a little, you will learn how to build one in no time.

You can start by posting your budget and usage of the pc and people here will give you great suggestions.

Post back.
