The fanciest high-end desktops from boutique gaming vendors are great objects of envy, and amazing machines if you can afford them, but most shoppers are working with more realistic budgets. The Dell G5 Gaming Desktop is a straightforward, compact system with a fast CPU and plenty of power for full 1080p gaming. It's highly configurable, but our prefab build hits almost all the marks (we'd add more storage) and leaves us very little to complain about. Like its Inspiron Gaming Desktop predecessor, it offers a great value. However, it can't quite swipe our entry-level gaming desktop Editors' Choice from the NZXT BLD Starter PC Plus, which offers virtually the same advantages (and a better GPU) at an even lower price.
