Fortnite has taken the gaming world by storm, offering addictive gameplay, both in the co-op sandbox survival mode and battle royale. What makes the game even more enjoyable is how optimized and well crafted it is. You could run it on an older, less-powerful PC without serious issues. If you're in the market for a new gaming rig, these picks are all contenders for the title of best gaming desktop PC for Fortnite.
Sleek design
Staff Pick
HP OMEN Obelisk
The OMEN Obelisk by HP is a serious gaming machine. You can kit-out the Obelisk with up to an Intel Core i7 CPU, NVIDIA GTX 2080 GPU, and 16GB of RAM. All you really need, however, is the $900 configuration, which includes an AMD Ryzen 5 3500 and 8GB RAM, and GTX 1660.
Budget rig
CyberPowerPC Gaming Desktop
This gaming rig from CyberPowerPC comes rocking the latest AMD Ryzen 5 3600 processor, AMD Radeon RX 580 GPU, 8GB RAM, 240GB SSD, and a 2TB hard-disk drive (HDD). The best part is this is a standard case that you'll find from other vendors, allowing you to upgrade to your heart's content.
Gaming laptop
Razer Blade 15
A laptop? Why yes! It's pre-built, ready to go, and can be taken anywhere you wish. The Razer Blade 15 is slim, packed with powerful gaming hardware, and has attractive display options. This model we selected here comes with an Intel Core i7-10750H CPU, NVIDIA RTX 2060 GPU, and 16GB of RAM. It's perfect for Fortnite on the go.
Ultimage Gaming Machine
Dell Alienware Aurora
Dell packed its new Aurora desktop gaming PCs with the latest Intel and AMD processors, starting at $911 for Intel or $960 for AMD. We'd recommend the base AMD configuration with a Ryzen 5 3500 CPU, GTX 1660 SUPER GPU, 1TB HDD, and 8GB of RAM. You can configure the PC to have a faster CPU, more RAM, and better GPU or install your own after ordering. This CPU is excellent for Fortnite and other games.
Custom King
MAINGEAR VYBE
If you're looking for a PC that comes built but feels like you built it, MAINGEAR's VYBE should satisfy. There are several configurations available, but there's also a custom build option that lets you design a PC from the ground up. Choose case and paint, Intel or AMD CPU, RGB lighting, GPU, motherboard, RAM, storage, cooling, PSU, and more.
If we're to choose a PC for Fortnite
Fortnite isn't a demanding game. All you need is an Intel Core i5 or AMD Ryzen 3 CPU, NVIDIA GTX 600 or AMD Radeon HD 7870 GPU, and 8GB RAM. These PCs easily meet those requirements and will allow you to be the last man standing should your skill be as good as your frame rate. If you need a single recommendation, go with the HP Omen Obelisk.
Not only does the Obelisk look sleek, but it's also got everything packed inside that you'll need, including at least a GTX 1060 GPU and Ryzen 5 processor at an affordable price. It's possible to even upgrade the PC at a later date with a more capable Ryzen CPU and NVIDIA GPU if you want to play some other more demanding games.
Should you have the available budget and wish to go all out from the get-go, the Dell Alienware Aurora can be kitted out with impressive components like the powerful AMD Ryzen 9 3950X CPU and powerful NVIDIA RTX graphics cards.
