Forums - PC Discussion - So I bought a PC. Is it any good?

https://www.amazon.com/gp/aw/d/B00VSD2K9M/ref=oh_aui_i_sh_pre_o0_img?ie=UTF8&psc=1

 

I was at a thrift store with my gf and I saw a pc monitor for $10.  Unable to resist a deal, I bought it.  Thing is, I always played games on Console.  I always used a laptop, console, or mobile device for my browsing needs.  Anyway, I bought the one above.  What do you PC guys think?  If was only $99!

4K/144 FPS ULTRA CONFIRMED

now abandon all ur consoles and jump into the prettier side of life.



For $99 it's pretty good bargain. Don't expect to do much gaming though .



Send a Friend Request On PSN :P

Great price mate

It's not a quad core processor, 2 GB DDR2 memory, and no mention of a graphics card... This wouldn't be ideal for gaming. I'm no expert by ANY means on building a gaming pc, but this seems a little low spec, but you're getting it for $100.

You could emulate older titles, but I'd say PS2 games is probably the best this is going to do. You get what you pay for

Its a dual core without hyperthread.

Its reaaaally really old (I think from like 2007), I believe its a "Intel Core2Duo E8400".

A 3ghz  "core" of this cpu, will be half speed atleast compaired the newest cpus Intel has if they ran at 3ghz.

Its 45nm and uses about 65watts under load.

 

2GB ram is way to low to do any demanding work, and maybe even to low to have alot of tabs open with say chrome.

80gb HDD is to low to really use it for much storage.

 

This is basically a PC that ll allow you to go onto the net and browse the web.

You wont be playing any decent games on this thing.



For browsing needs it's good, but you should buy a cheap 64 or 120gb SSD and clone the HDD to it, the PC will feel ten times faster.

Deus Ex (2000) - a game that pushes the boundaries of what the video game medium is capable of to a degree unmatched to this very day.

Guess I won't be doing much gaming, then. At least I'll have another place to watch porn. It should arrive before the end of the week. I'll but a desk in the meantime



Not the best rig for gaming, but $99 isn't bad at all.



"Just for comparison Uncharted 4 was 20x bigger than Splatoon 2. This shows the huge difference between Sony's first-party games and Nintendo's first-party games."

If you want to do gameing.
I think you should return it and do a budget gameing machine.

The budget gameing machine =
CPU = intel g3258 @4.5 ghz overclock.
GPU = geforce 750ti +slight OC.

I have a Intel Pentium g3258 that I overclocked to 4.0ghz (honestly its enough), I love the bang for the buck I got outta it.
