Looking For The Best Prebuilt Gaming PC 2022? Start With These

Gaming prebuilts are almost always maligned by PC gamers. But believe it or not, not all of them suck (even if most of them actually do). So for this list, you're going to learn about the different options for the best prebuilt gaming PC of 2022. Yes, there are several, and most of them offer better bang for the buck than when you're trying to part them out and build the systems yourself.

Without further ado, let's begin!

MSI Aegis RS 11th Gen

Tom's Hardware recommends this beast of a system for its inclusion of easy-to-replace, off-the-shelf parts and decent peripherals, which complement its excellent gaming performance for the price. It comes with an Intel Core i7-11700K (8 cores, 16 threads), an MSI RTX 3080 Ventus, and 16GB of DDR4 RAM with a PCIe Gen 4.0 SSD. It also features a chunky 2TB Seagate Barracuda HDD for mass storage, all for a current price of $1789 on Newegg at the time of this writing.

Now, even if graphics card prices have come down, we challenge you to try to build a gaming PC with a 3080 and an 11700K in it. Just the GPU and CPU alone will already cost over $1000, and you haven't even factored in your CPU cooler, RAM kit, case, power supply, and everything else. It is a fairly well-reviewed system and could very well be the best prebuilt gaming PC of 2022 (if not the best). Here's a review of it from YouTuber Robeytech Live:

Origin Millennium Series

The Origin Millennium is not so much as a single prebuilt gaming PC, but an entire line of them featuring different performance tiers. Origin is one of the most respected boutique builders in the industry, and their creations are almost always included in any list talking about the best prebuilt gaming PC in 2022.

PC Gamer recommends any of the Origin Millennium prebuilts for their excellent build quality, powerhouse performance, and quiet operation. The only drawback is that the higher-end builds can get very expensive. At the highest end, you can get up to a Ryzen 9 5950X or a Core i9-12900KS, and a maximum of an RX 6900 XT or an RTX 3090 Ti. So at the top end of the spectrum, an Origin Millennium desktop can be an absolute beast.

Corsair One i300

When it comes to the best prebuilt gaming PC in 2022, the Corsair One i300 is perhaps the top dog of small form factor builds. An SFF build is an excellent choice for PC gaming enthusiasts who want as much desk space as possible, which can be very useful for performing quick, huge flick shots with the mouse.

But with all the power packed into such a small case (i9-12900K , liquid-cooled RTX 3080 Ti, and 64GB of DDR5 RAM), you'll need to pay a hefty, hefty fee. On Amazon, the One i300 currently costs $3600. Furthermore, another major drawback is that it won't be as easy to upgrade down the line, because of the small form factor tower. There's really just not much room to work with.

HP Omen 25L

If you feel like our list featuring the best prebuilt gaming PC in 2022 is full of ultra-expensive towers, don't fret. We saved the bang-for-the-buck system for last: the HP Omen 25L.

At just under $1400 on Newegg as of the moment, the Omen 25L packs a powerful punch for the price. You'll get at the very least a GTX 1660 Super, a six-core Core i5-10400F CPU, and 8GB of RAM coupled with a 512GB SSD. Seasoned PC gaming enthusiasts will call this system out for its 8GB of memory, and they'd be right - 16GB is the "recommended minimum" these days. But you can always upgrade the system down the line, and the current lowest-end components featured here can still deliver a great gaming experience.
