So my brother is about to head-off to college and he is a laptop gamer, the laptop he uses is a lenovo g50-80 and I must say it doesn't get him a lot of frames on the games he play.
It can run DOTA 2 smooth if he turns down the graphic to the lowest possIble setting. I am planning to buy him a 2nd hand desktop so that he can take it with him when he goes to college.
I found a very cheap Dell Optiplex 9020 SFF.
So I'm planning to just give him my old 750ti as well and bump up the RAM to 16GB, also buying him a new 512GB SSD instead of that 500GB HDD.
Just wanted to ask if this plan is going to be good enough for a gamer? Not really a gamer myself, but I am a techie of some sort
