Looking for a desktop, I want it for primarily video games. D3, Runescape, diablo 4 whenever that comes out.

Graphics don't have to be amazing, just better than average. I want it to run smoothly while playing games and streaming.

I don't need to know the parts names just how much I would have to spend for an above average computer setup, including desktop, mouse, and keyboard.

You could build a nice pc for 1000 bucks. Keyboard and mouse depends on how master race you are.

You can make a alot cheaper PC than 1000... For the games he want to play you can make 1 for $500-600

In canada, I'd probably ballpark around 750 dollars for this - mouse, keyboard + hardware

Really? that's it? I wouldn't mind spending up to $2,000 if it would make a difference.

At that price range you would pretty much be able to play any games max settings.
Yeah it would make a difference. So if you are willing to pay. I would recommend you something in the price range of 1200-1500 because you are interested in streaming. But the 750$ would reach your "better an average". Specially because you are not mention any aaa games.

I have no idea what any of those things are XD

$1,300 doesn't sound so bad though. Is it capable of running say youtube and runescape, and stream at the same time? or diablo 3 etc

I want it to run really smooth, I don't want any lagg at all

I don't mind the 1200-1500 price range, just curious what are aaa games that require better comps than that?
