Find a desktop computer that balances incredible performance with smart style, without compromising on either. Whether you’re after a family desktop computer for everything from homework to streaming movies, a professional desktop PC that can handle a heavy workload or a high-spec gaming PC, we’ve got a range of options for every budget.

Why choose a desktop PC?

Whether you want a desktop computer for work or play, there are plenty of reasons to choose a desktop PC. Higher power, a greater level of customisation, and top of the line performance – as long as you’ve got space in your home or office, then a desktop PC offers a superior computing experience.

Keen gamer? Despite the growing popularity of gaming laptops and portable workstations, for those who aren’t gaming on the go, a desktop gaming PC remains the weapon of choice. While laptops offer portability and sometimes a lower price point, when it comes to needing genuine power, then a desktop computer is the way to go.

Without the power and cooling limitations of a laptop, desktops can handle much higher performance, and can take higher-spec PC parts than mobile options like laptops. With a larger case and more space, desktop computers are often better for cooling, which means they can handle the high demand of top of the line processors and graphics cards.

Upgrading desktop PCs

Unlike laptops, the individual components of a desktop PC are readily available to buy and can be easily upgraded or swapped out. As a result, a performance desktop can have a significantly longer life-cycle, as key components and PC parts can be replaced individually. This means desktop PCs can have a significantly longer life-span before a complete upgrade is necessary, saving you money in the long term.

If you’re after fully customisable desktop PCs, we’ve got plenty to help you on your way, from powerful prebuilt AlphaSync desktop computers to all of the components you need to build your own desktop PC.

A customisable experience

With a laptop, you are in essence stuck with the keyboard and screen that come with whichever brand of laptop you’ve chosen. Adding an extra screen and keyboard creates more bulk and clutter – not ideal if a lack of space was the main reason for buying a laptop in the first place! And while we stock a brilliant range of powerful laptops, for a computer power user, a desktop PC just offers significantly more scope for creating a customised experience.

With desktop PCs, there’s no need to settle for a temperamental trackpad – your new desktop PC can benefit from a powerful dedicated computer mouse that won’t get in the way. Not a fan of the flat keys on a laptop keyboard? Choose a specialised keyboard for the ultimate experience.

What specs do I need to look at when buying a desktop PC?

When looking at new desktop computers, you should consider the processor or CPU first and foremost. This is the most expensive component that everybody will need, and is also one of the most expensive components to update at a later point. We stock a wide range, with some of the best desktop PC options including high-spec options like the AMD Ryzen 9, or the Intel Core i9, for seriously demanding games and programs.

Depending on your intended use, your total RAM and the installed graphics card are also important, especially if you’re planning to play modern AAA games. If you want to enjoy gaming in 4K, with a high definition desktop PC monitor to match, then you’ll need a powerful graphics card that can handle generating and displaying 4K graphics.

Storage is always something to bear in mind – we offer plenty of internal hard drives and external hard drive storage options. A larger HDD or SSD is helpful to have if you’re handling a lot of media files, with M.2 SSDs offering incredible performance – but if you find you’re running low on storage, these are among the parts of a PC which can be easily upgraded at a later date.

What is the best desktop PC?

Arguably, it’s impossible to say what the best desktop PC is, as it all depends on what you want from the system. However, desktop computers with a Ryzen 9 or Core i7 or i9 processor, high speed RAM, an NVIDIA RTX graphics card, and an SSD should breeze through almost anything you can throw at them.

Why you should buy a desktop PC

Yes, they may take up more space than a laptop. But with a desktop PC you certainly get more bang for your money. And that thing about space? Computer desktop PCs are so much more compact than they used to be. Today’s small form factors mean anyone can comfortably find room for a PC. If space or style are a real concern, check out our range of all in one desktop PCs – the best of both worlds.
