CONSOLE-TO-PC GUIDE

What do I need after buying my first gaming PC?

Buying the tower is not the whole move. Plan for setup pieces that are easy to forget when you come from console.

Day-one checklist

LootRig switching-cost guidance highlights known vs unknown pieces so you can avoid surprise costs.

  • Display plan: monitor or known-good TV setup.
  • Input plan: keyboard and mouse, plus controller if desired.
  • Network plan: Ethernet or confirmed Wi-Fi capability.
  • OS/account plan and launcher installs.
  • Audio plan: headset or speakers.
