So I’m buying my first gaming pc and my friend recommended me pic related, what do you guys think?
First gaming pc

Call him for a retard for recommending a pre-built.
I’m literally too retarded to build a pc myself though, I’d rather have it prebuilt. I’m not even a huge gamer I just want to play gta and modded Skyrim on HD graphics
I really want a gaming pc but it looks complicated with all the parts. What type of pc can play any game avalaible ?
just pay someone to build it for you or buy a console
I thought the same thing at first, but then I started playing around with pcpartpicker last Fall and sure enough, I built my first PC this past January. It's honestly not that difficult, and if you do plenty of research beforehand, you can save yourself a LOT of money and gain some good knowledge about how things work.
This.
Pre-built is for literal children.
>What type of pc can play any game avalaible
With new hardware and OSes you will run into compatability issues with games that will work on older versions of windows but not newer versions. There is no PC that can play any game available.
Money isn’t a issue, I just don’t really have the time to learn and build a pc, I just want to play games at 60FPS and HD graphics
its actually a good deal, also that case comes with USB C port just get a SSD and you are done.
You're completely retarded, stick to consoles
Do a little bit of research, watch a few videos, and ask some subreddits for help. In a few months you won't even remember how you felt when you didn't know how to build a pc and call everyone retarded.
Rip.That killed my pc enthusiasm
it's fine, even the big name stores that sell prebuilts make them pretty decent for the money, so if you've got a smaller budget you wouldn't do half bad.
Guys if I bought the pc in the OP what else would I need to buy? I assume it’s only the “engine” and I still need to buy a desktop with a keyboard and shit right?
...
try charging your phone and while you're at it charge your brain too retard
If you can't handle building a PC, I doubt you'll be able to mod anything. Stick to consoles champ.
Mouse, keyboard, monitor, and a controller for games that don't feel right on m+kb.
I will give you a legit answer unlike the retards here, your PC is very high-end, but your CPU might bottleneck your GPU, your GPU is strong, your CPU is not, but it will run current games just fine at 60-120 FPS in ultra settings at 720/1080p.
If you're not building it yourself, why is a piecemeal PC better than just one that comes already assembled?
Is there any point to delidding if you won't OC?
Also how do you OC?
It doesn't seem like a bad deal honestly, I'd say go for it. Especially since I just tried to build it and it costs more.
Any monitors you recommend?
I already mod fallout on my shitty laptop so I know how to
The 'Renewed' part is what makes it cheaper I guess.
Hopefully it'll last OP to play his videogames
Any 1080p monitor with a display port honestly
If anything he can always just slap a newer CPU/GPU
What’s wrong with renewed? Can I still buy it?
Prebuilts come with shit motherboards, psu, ram,etc.
Stop spreading FUD.
I think "Renewed" is Amazon's way of saying "Refurbished"
>400W PSU
Niggawhat? At least invest on 550 or better so you have good future proofing.
I've been lurking a while and I here again and again about AMD processors being trashy, but is any of it really warranted? I'm basically in OP's shoes right now but I do know some things about parts and such
>not buying prebuilts when they're on sale and save massive dosh
I only build myself but my wallet cringes every time I see a good prebuilt deal.
Prebuilts you choose every single thing that goes into it, the bad thing about them its that they overcharge.
UMMMMM I le thought the same thing until one day I magically built everything you can totally do it join the meme please we're lonely we need more people to brag
It's used. Should be fine though.
>If anything he can always just slap a newer CPU/GPU
I guess, but it might be costly in the long run.
Store might've bought certain parts back, mainly weary about GPUs as they could have been used for mining, shortening their lifespan by a lot.
Just go with it and see how it turns out, better experience this as your first gaming PC and see if you like it. People here have built $2000 Yas Forums machines it's kinda sad.
I mean, The point was to attempt to build the same build for cheaper at any cost.There's no way in hell I would ever put a PSU under 600W in a build
You're not going to play either of those on a 500 dollar HP prebuilt.
Prebuilts will usually cheaper components in them, and you could instead get better individual parts at a similar price.
But when they're discounted like this, or certain components are experiencing price spikes, they can actually be pretty decent deals.
>your PC is very high-end
A legit Fortnite demolisher at 1080p medium settings
Imagine buying a Bestbuy Tier pc, AND before an economic crash!
Alright guys I’m about to buy it. Any last tips/concerns before I buy? I’m getting a HD monitor and keyboard and mouse so for everything it will be about 650$
retard
I sold my old y510p from 2013 to a Brazilian 2 days ago for 400 bucks. He just wanted it for CS GO. Fuck gaming laptops.
>2400g & 580
>$500
eh if you built it yourself that would get you a 1tb ssd instead of garbo 1tb hdd
sorta depends if you can upgrade it easily
you probably could upgrade that one but it would take a lot of effort compared to something like a pre-assembled one where you can choose your components and have a company assemble it for you.
Seems ok.
Personally I would go for a 144hz monitor, even 1080p. I regret not getting one two years ago when I built my first PC.
Why?
That was bulldozer CPUs (8350 and the likes)
Ryzens are fine.
Get one with a Nvidia card. AMD has shitty drivers, and ignore the people who say it werks for them.
>$200 2400G
>A320 mobo
>8GB Ram
>400w PSU
mother of all yikes
8gb ram isnt fucking enough in 2020
Because he thinks you need a 2080TI to even run games at 40fps, 1080p.
Don't mind those sheep, they are CONSOOMERS
...
>RX 580 can't handle Skyrim
Get 16GB of ram and at least a 2070 super. Or just wait until the next console gen.
How’s this?
I have 8gb ram and have 30+ layers in Photoshop constantly, played P5 and BOTW on their emulators with every shader loaded just fine, so unless you're a boomer you really don't need more than that.
its literally true though
budget mobos
single channel XMP not enabled RAM
non-modular and sometimes non-standard PSUs
charge your phone faggot
even my gts250 can handle Skyrim. And since this is PC expert thread why there is a lot games that don't looks special compared to ancient, PS3 era one but have high system requirements?
Please answer question
Look up reviews.
My monitor is ASUS as well, and it works great, but I can't say the same for every monitor.
There's little point to delidding in general, you'd know if you wanted to. To OC just have a cpu and motherboard capable of it. Move the cpu ratio slowly, benchmark and look at temperatures. If it's unstable or too hot move it down 1 or 2 steps.
Look, faggot, I build PCs because I really enjoy the experience but that isn't something everyone cares for. I wouldn't tell someone that building your own PC is the only justifiable way to get into PC gaming.
I don't think user will run 1440p 60p very well.
youtu.be
what's the best video card an i5 ivy bridge can use properly
you should go for the 144hz version desu
Super outdated before you even open it
spend 200 more dollars for a non-shitty prebuilt
>1440p
I know. That's why I said 1080p 144hz.
Even if he doesn't reach 144hz in most games, mainstream ones like CSGO, Fortnite, Overwatch and whatever, should be easy to get there.
doesn't say if it's 144hz
>ivy bridge
Come on, user. That shit is 8 years old. It's time to upgrade.
Motherboard, power supply and ram might be an issue. Everything else looks ok for gaming. For a bit more detail, motherboards are usually cheap and nasty in pre-builds and might not last the length of the components, also if you want to upgrade some part of the machine the motherboard might not have the slots or compatibility to do so. The power supply might also be limited in a similar manor, they are usually only given enough wattage to supply whats already in there and nothing else and won't let you supply enough juice to overclock either. Finally 8GB of ram can run games but more and more recommendations are approaching the 16GB mark also the GHZ and latency timings are not mentioned so I would be skeptical however RAM is the easiest part to upgrade.
If you're not comfortable with building one yourself then maybe shop around with online shops that can mix and match parts so you can maybe get something that matches your requirements better.
Ok so I don’t know if I should buy this pc or not, can anyone link me to a really good prebuilt pc that isn’t too expensive?
shit bait post
I misread that.
i already upgraded from a 2.4 core 2 duo like 2 weeks ago
i don't care about modern games i just wanna play the same shit better 90% of the time
