With $550 off this might be the best value gaming PC for 1440p right now

Skytech Shadow | Nvidia RTX 4070 Super | Intel Core i5 14400F | 32 GB DDR4 RAM | 1 TB NVMe SSD | 650W PSU | $1,899.99$1,349.99 at Newegg (save $550)
It's rare to see a gaming PC at this price that runs not only an RTX 4070 Super but also a current-gen CPU and 32 GB RAM. This rig should play modern titles at 1440p resolution with ease.

Skytech's prebuilt gaming PCs often hit us right where we like them to: in the easy-on-the-wallet market segment for mainstream PC gamers. None of this «spend an extra $500 for more RGB» nonsense. Just solid value budget and mid-range builds.

The Core i5 13400F features on our list of the best CPUs for gaming, and the Core i5 14400F is essentially just a 13400F with a higher (albeit mostly pointless) boost clock. It features six Performance-cores that can boost up to 4.6 GHz, which is all the grunt that's really needed for gamers on a budget. It can certainly hold the 4070 Super up in modern games, and it has four additional
