Any help is greatly appreciated. I want to buy ASAP.
I'll tip very well if you can help me out.

I'm looking to spend $1,300 to $1,800 Canadian at most.

So far, I know I need at least this?:
i7-14700k
4060 gpu
Ram 32 GB DDR5
1 TB NVMe SSD


I'm trying to play any new releases with great FPS, like BF 6 and, of course, POE 2. (Right now I have 10ish FPS on T1 first maps... Unplayable. I can't imagine denser maps.

I found these two PCs, but I don't know if they're good enough/should invest a bit more. Or if they're even worth the price tag. (I'm SO lost)

$1,499 Canadian:
https://www.amazon.ca/Skytech-Nebula-Gaming-Desktop-14400F/dp/B0F8Q52R4B/ref=cm_cr_arp_d_product_top?ie=UTF8

$1,363 Canadian
https://www.amazon.ca/CyberPowerPC-i5-13400F-GeForce-Windows-GXiVR8060A40/dp/B0DW4BY993/

I haven't bought a PC in years, and the options are overwhelming. I don't want to overpay for no reason. I want a GREAT PC that's worth every penny. Even if I need to increase my spending limit.

Thank you for your time.

Couple things. One, this game is very unoptimized and even some of the highest end systems will get bogged down during deli maps with abyss mechanics etc. So just taper your expectations. I imagine if you havent upgraded your pc in a long time it will still be a huge upgrade in playability though.

Two, you're going to need minimum 32gb of ram and just looking through the amazon prebuilts, most of them are either really underwhelming budget wise for the price, or way overpriced for the mid-high end range. I would check out other prebuilt companies websites directly. Can probably get a better deal. Ideally you want a higher end CPU for this game, 14400f isnt bad at all but it is considered mid range.

GPU is up to you and what res you play on, but if you want future proof you'd probably want the 5070 or 4070 super or something like that.

If you can up your budget to 2k im sure you could find a solid system. That all being said buying parts individually and building it yourself will always be most efficient money/quality wise.
