need a decent gaming pc...quick

[Craphouserat]

Hi all

No experience of gaming PC's but usually reliable Sony Vaio is on its last legs. Because I am pc illiterate I was thinking Dell / HP as trusty names. I know Alienware are probably the best gaming pc's my budget is £800....Mrs won't allow me more as I have a PS4 !

So was looking at this

Any views/experiences/recommendations appreciated.

Cheers

Look on the dell outlet, often Alienware stuff discounted there if that’s what you would like:

I got an MSI gaming laptop a few years back and it’s been great so far, still plays new games in 4k with reasonable FPS, can’t max settings on the newest games anymore but still looks really good in 4k anyway.

I wouldn’t discount them but depends what you want from it, I wanted to be able to take mine with me when traveling etc.
