Wait, where’s Tier 1 and 2?
Tier 1 and 2 can be found in our Budget ($300-$700) Gaming PCs article. Based on a suggestion from Andrew J, Tiers numbering will be spread across all Gaming Builds, with Tier 1 and 2 used for Budget Builds, Tier 3, 4, 5, 6 and 7 for Mainstream Builds, Tier 8+ for higher-end builds. It should make our life easier when we refer to the builds, on the Hardware Revolution Forums for example, you can only say that you’ve built a PC based on Tier 7 (short and easy to write), instead of saying Tier 2 from the Mainstream Gaming PC (long…to write).
