The Best Gaming PCs Under $500
Six gaming PCs under $500 with integrated graphics, from Radeon 680M to Radeon 780M, each with its CPU, graphics, memory and storage named.

12 min read6 products evaluated

No listing we found under $500 pairs a tower with a separate graphics card and names every part, so every pick here is a mini PC that games on Radeon integrated graphics. We ordered these six by memory relative to price at the time of writing.
We compared the parts each listing names: CPU, graphics card and VRAM, memory, storage and, where stated, the power supply and warranty. We did not test these systems, and we skipped listings that leave a core part vague.
