Beste gaming-pc 2026: top-configuraties per budget

In 2026 domineren RTX 4000 en RX 7000. De beste pc is niet de duurste, maar degene die past bij jouw games en budget.

Best gaming PC at €400–600: efficient entry-level

At €400–600, PCs with GTX 1650, RTX 3050 or RX 6600 perfectly cover competitive games (CS2, Fortnite, Apex, LoL) at 60–200 FPS at 1080p.

Typical build: Ryzen 5 5500 or i5-11400F + RTX 3050 / GTX 1660 Super + 16 GB DDR4 + NVMe SSD.

Best gaming PC at €800–1,000: the 1080p/1440p sweet spot

The €800–1,000 range offers the best value in 2026. RTX 3060 Ti or RTX 4060 + Ryzen 5 5600 achieves 60+ FPS at 1440p ultra on most AAA titles.

Check that RAM is dual-channel (2×8 GB) for a free performance boost.

Best gaming PC at €1,200–1,500: 1440p without compromise

RTX 4060 Ti or RTX 4070 + Ryzen 5 7600 targets 1440p ultra 60–100 FPS with basic ray tracing on Cyberpunk.

Recommended if you already have or plan to get a 1440p 144 Hz monitor.

How to choose based on your usage

Competitive FPS (CS2, Valorant, Apex) → prioritize CPU and high FPS: RTX 4060 + i5/Ryzen 5 at €800–1,000.

AAA solo (Cyberpunk, BG3, Elden Ring) → GPU priority: RTX 4060 Ti or RX 7700 XT at €1,000–1,200.
