And they look like they could hold their own in game play. They sport Intel Core i7 CPUs, 32 gigabytes of memory working with high-capacity HDDs and SSDs, and up to 1080Ti Nvidia GeForce GTX graphic cards. All are also ready for virtual reality.

The PCs, which are available for pre-order at Walmart.com, start in price at $999 for the lowest cost laptop, while its desktop counterpart costs $1,399.
