Thks for your tips I also think that today's APUs would definitely beat a GT430, but again my parents doesn't allow me to buy new stuff so stuck with a 2nd-gen i3

Just out of interest, what do you think is the best QWERTY keyboard for typing?

well then the highest worries is that the gpu can't run the game

i play minesweeper a lot and it runs well over 30fps :))

welp it run those games at about 60fps so no worries

So I got introduced into the PC building world pretty recently. Got bored in the middle of lockdown and decided to have a try at building a PC. Since then, I loved everything about a PC. But my parents weren't really interested, and they were strict about everything related to money, so they did not let me buy new parts. That meant I had to scavenge the house for old parts (which luckily my dad had loads). The eventual build though had terrible specs due to the fact that the parts were incredibly old. Most of it was ok, a 650W PSU, i3-2120 (which is enough for me), 16GB DDR3 RAM, Optiplex 3010 (Pentium G645 version) prebuilt motherboard, etc. But there was one part in particular that I wasn't pleased about: the video card. It's a GT430 (ASUS-ENGT430) and I can tell you, it's terrible. So since I don't wanna burn out the GPU, I'm asking if it is enough to hold up to today's less hardware-intensive AAA games. Thks
