Getting started with PC gaming

An honest, no-hype guide to your first gaming PC setup and library.

Why PC?

Huge game library, frequent sales, mods, and it doubles as a work computer.

Start with what you have

Many great games run on modest laptops. Check each game's minimum specs on its store page before buying.

Build a library cheaply

  • Wait for seasonal sales.
  • Compare authorised key stores like Humble, Fanatical and GreenManGaming.
  • Try free-to-play games first.
