I've tried to convince my parents to let me build, to no avail. So I have to pick one of the three.
I mainly play LoL and WoW,usually for long hours(more than 8 per day).
And I'd like to use the pc for as long as I can.
I'd appreciate any thoughts/opinions/help

Not really...

You will spend so much time taking your PC back to replace failed parts. Prebuilts are all built with shit PSUs and parts component shoppers have sent back (someone from my class worked assembling prebuilt PCs over the summer). If you ever upgrade your machine, you won't be able to take it back due to warranty problems and will waste money replacing the parts/machine.

I've had many technically illiterate friends ask me about PCs. The ones who built them themselves (or got me to help) have had no problems, the ones who went and bought prebuilts? Not so much.

>Deer psu's
Never heard of em.
That means they probably blow and probably will do exactly that after some time.

>GDDR3 GPU's
All builds are trash.

Out of all the builds the third is the most reasonable and that one's trash as well.

Find another reseller.

>DDR3 GPU
Buying a shit GPU is a bad idea, especially if you want to game for >8 hours a day.

Don't know about the current state, but WoW doesn't really profit from multi-threading (even though they work on it from addon to addon), so going Intel might be the better option, except if you need a budget build (which your offers are, though...).

Also, I don't really get why your parents are against building something yourself. Try to convice them that going self-build has better a price/performance ratio and mention that there are services which allow you to select the parts you want and for a little fee (about 20-30 Euro usually), the shop builds the PC for you and ships it ready to use for you.

>obviously underage
get out

>>51395774
Get cheapest one as all of them will be bottlenecked by gpu. And i mean highly bottlenecked. They all will show similiar performance on very low level. I dont know if these gpus can handle lol at highest settings in full hd for 8 hours, had gt 740 and was playing on low details.

I could replace some parts slowly
>>51396024
They just don't trust me to build one. I tried to convince them many times.
>>51395892
I'd prefer to built,but I can't.
>>51395936
This is the best one I found
>>51396284
I can play at the lowest settings,I don't mind.

>I could replace some parts slowly
But that would be a waste of money.

>They just don't trust me to build one. I tried to convince them many times.

Then try to convince them by saying you let the shop where you buy it build for a fee, but you get to choose the parts. That way you won't be able to mess it up.
