So, I saw this post on Facebook of a 'gaming computer' for sale. The person selling it is selling it for £50, as of now. It does not come with a hard drive, but they're not that expensive, just for a 500gb..

Anyway, it has a Sapphire 260x graphics card, and they sell for £100 new, and he said the PC has had barely no use.

Anyway, this PC would just be used for parts. Here is what he said, including the specs, it also comes with a 19" monitor.

"Core2quad q6600
6gb ram(supports 16gb)
Gaming motherboard(dual graphics support)
Sapphire 260x
Dvd drive
600w power supply
Icute Atx case with huge side fan
19" monitor
Monitor cable
Power cables
Hard drive has been removed for security reasons, but cheap enough for a good size nowadays, it's in very good working order, nice quad power with a nice gaming graphics card and 16gb max ram support is a nice touch, plus with dual graphic support and 6 Sata ports it can be made in to an even better gaming/media computer.
Monitor is in very good working order and a nice monitor to look at.
Quick sale needed."

It isn't nothing like today's PC's with all the fancy cases and what not, but here is some pics he took:

So yeah, I guess it would be worth it for just the graphics card alone, any thoughts?

For £50 you cant complain, providing everything is working correctly and in pretty good order. I would check the manufacturer of the PSU if your going to be using it in another system as it might be a cheap one that could cause problems in the future.

Someone else will probably be able to give you better advice but imo for £50 you cant go wrong
