If we were to choose a PC for Rainbow Six Siege

Why you can trust Windows Central Our expert reviewers spend hours testing and comparing products and services so you can choose the best for you. Find out more about how we test.

Rainbow Six Siege is a good-looking game, but it doesn't have high system requirements. This makes it possible for you to use a gaming PC with only an Intel Core i5 or AMD Ryzen 5 CPU and an AMD RX 500 or NVIDIA GeForce GTX 10-series GPU. It's very likely your current PC will be able to run the game, but if you need a new rig our collection here will serve you well.

If we were to choose a single PC to recommend, it would be the HP Omen 30L. It has the looks, as well as the internal components to match. It's somewhat affordable too, containing an RTX 2060 SUPER GPU and Intel Core i7 processor. It's possible to even upgrade the PC at a later date with a more capable Intel Core or AMD Ryzen CPU and NVIDIA GPU if you want to play some more demanding games.

Should you have the available budget and wish to go all out from the get-go, the HP OMEN 30L can be kitted out with vital components like the powerful Intel Core i9-10900K CPU and powerful NVIDIA RTX graphics cards. This machine will easily play R6S.
