The FlowUP recommendation

The right machine isn’t the one with the most spectacular specs—it's the one that allocates the budget to the GPU, keeps 16GB of RAM, and doesn’t compromise on the power supply or cooling.

01

What can you expect from a gaming PC under €1,000?

This range is aimed first and foremost at 1080p. Competitive games run under very good conditions, and most recent titles remain accessible by adjusting the graphics settings intelligently.

The compromise must remain transparent: we prioritise components that genuinely affect your experience, and we avoid generic power supplies, unbalanced configurations, or storage capacities that are too low.

02

Why balance matters more than the number of components

A powerful processor paired with a too-weak graphics card doesn’t make a good gaming PC. In this range, FlowUP sizes the platform around real use: playing in Full HD with a stable machine that can be upgraded when that’s still relevant.

What sets a good configuration apart

Every component must be on budget

The motherboard, power supply, SSD, RAM, and cooling contribute as much to the final quality as the CPU/GPU duo.

  • Clearly identified references
  • Controlled compatibility and upgradability
  • Cooling matched to the load
  • Careful assembly and cable management
