What's your guys opinions on this Gaming PC?
[ Register or Signin to view external links. ]
I've been looking around on the pc customisers ebay for gaming pcs around the 300 price range and this one seems to be the best one there as far as I'm aware, I think that the graphics card is the best one and that the proccesor could do with upgrading but I'm not the smartest with computers so I'm asking for your guys help.
I want to be able to run DayZ Standalone and games like battlefield, do you think this would be good enough to run these games? If not then what do you guys recommend from around the 300 price range on the pc customiser or another trusted website. Please no one post there builds saying to build it, I don't want to build a pc since I don't have the time. no trolls please.
thanks for reading and hope you can help me!

that does look pretty good for a gaming pc. later on you can always upgrade which is pretty cheap. thats what im doing right now for my brother. also for that pc, its got no operating system so you'll need to install one.

Thanks for the feedback, I was looking at the cheapest one on the website since my friends got it however this one looks better. I know that I'd need to get a operating system for it and I'm trying to spend around 500 this is including the operating system, anti-virus, keyboard & mouse & monitor.

This seems a little good to be true. I would be very careful with buying PC's on Ebay. The GPU is decent, will play most games at medium or high settings 1080p 30+ FPS, BUT the VRAM is only 1 gig, which means you may not have enough memory to max out games. The CPU is not 4.0 Ghz, they lied on that one. Its actually 3.2 ghz and 3.7ghz turbo.
They dont give the name of the PSU, figures, it may or may not be a $20 PSU.
Other than that it seems fine for a basic gaming computer.

Seems fine for a basic gaming computer.. Your probably going to need to upgrade the graphics down the road because it only has 1GB DDR3 and most games are built for DDR5..The only other concern would be reliability because corners must have been cut to keep the costs down.

Ahem..... GDDR5 *Cough*
Anyways yeah he is right, you really want atleast 2 gigs of GDDR5 memory. And you want a clock above 900 mhz for a GPU for optimal usage.

for the price, it is still crud.
On a low budget it is better if you build yourself as you save a fair amount of money
