Computer Help
Hey, I'm thinking of buying a gaming computer and i want to know your opinions on whether or not it will run well (as all i know about computers is it turns on and plays games). I'm not looking to build my own pc, but this guy i've found looks extremely good, and has nice prices imo. Here is the pc im looking to buy http://www.ebay.com.au/itm/INTEL-Cor...item53f482b3b7 It's an Intel Core i7 Gaming Computer with 3.4GHz Processing speed, 1T of memory and 8Gbs of RAM and a 27 Inch Monitor. I will be upgrading the RAM to a 16GB version and will be replacing the ASUS GT610 1GB Video Card to a 2GB version (since any higher and it'll cost 300-500$ extra. I can upgrade the 3.4GHz to 3.5 but i'm not sure whether it will have much of an impact on the pcs performance and whether it's worth the $50 extra it costs. So with all that said, will this thing be a beast or will it run like any other normal pc. Dat touchscreen on the case

GT610 is a really bad card for gaming overall in general. If you want a card that will play almost every game out there at a reasonably price, i recommend a Nvidia GTX 660 Ti.

I'd still recommend building it yourself- the hassle is very little and it's definitely worth it.

Tbh 0.1Ghz doesn't really matter. What matter is usually 0.4+Ghz |

He changes the hardware for you I've changed the specs i want. Same processor, Intel Core i7 3.4GHz, Same RAM 16gb, New H77 Motherboard, New AMD HD7870 2GB Video Card, and still 1T of harddrive. Will those run well?

I'd suggest you get a custom built one, I know someone who has a custom made one for gaming- runs like a charm. |
