When it comes to buying our gaming PCs, we’d love it if budget wasn’t an issue. Sadly, we have “grown up” responsibilities that eat our funds. Thankfully, Overclockers UK has an extensive range of gaming PCs to suit any budget. Today, we’re looking at gaming PCs that fall under the £2000 price point.
Each is from our range of configurable gaming PCs, so there is some wiggle room on cost and spec for each of them. We have three gaming PCs under £2000 to showcase today, equipped with premium hardware that has been crafted for A-grade gaming.

Configure Them Your Way
The OcUK Gaming Harrier, Rapier, and Sabre are all part of our configurable gaming PC range, meaning you can adjust the base spec to better suit your budget and gaming needs. You can make changes to both the cosmetics and hardware, perhaps allocating more of your budget to the GPU or memory, whilst opting out of extra storage drives to keep the price down.
It should be noted that configuring the PC will affect the price, but all changes are shown in real-time so you can easily track how much everything costs. With the Harrier and Rarpier, you have a little more wiggle room when it comes to upgrading, as their price point starts with a couple hundred-pound margin from our £2000 limit. The Vulture, however, is priced at £1,825.00, so any configurations are likely to take you over.
Pre-Built Options Under £2000
The Overclockers UK gaming PC range includes pre-built computers with a fixed specification. They are engineered to provide outstanding gaming performance at a variety of price points. As such, we even have a few cheeky pre-built PCs that fit the “under £2000” bill.
