For those running Zwift on a desktop, what computer are you using? I asked a computer "guru" at a box store about what I would need, and brought in the requirements according to Zwift. He recommended a gaming computer for $1400. Uh, no. There has to be something less expensive that will be adequate. I'm not going to be running any games that require mega speed or graphics (I don't think - I'm illiterate when it comes to computer hardware.)
Suggestions?

There's a Facebook group dedicated to collecting information about PC builds for Zwift. There's a lot of good information there. Basically, you need a newer generation Core I3, 8M ram, and preferably an SSD drive. A decent video card is also needed if you want to run max resolution and frame rates.
