Yeah it's an old ass workstation cpu but that fact doesn't matter. It's just pretty old and will probably Bottleneck the GTX1060 by a good margin. 

Also it doesn't have an ssd, only a probably pretty jacked HDD. The PSU is most likely also not the best but it's from an workstation so you gotta expect it to be somewhat decent and 8gb ram isn't that much in 2k18.

 

Considering the GPU alone is already like $200 the price is okay-ish. 

So you would not recommend me to get this pc because of the CPU right? 

I know that the GPU is really good and so as everything else but I'm not so sure about the CPU. I'm not sure so correct me if I'm wrong but inst that CPU for server usage? Also, It would be nice if you give me advice on what questions I should ask the seller about the pc. 

 

The super cheap gaming pc: https://sfbay.craigslist.org/sby/sys/d/custom-gaming-pc-3ghz-8gb-ram/6761663399.html

 

Oh and also one more thing is this pc a scam? To me it does not really look like a scam I think Its a really good pc for the price, plus I can always upgrade the pc later and even buy a new case and transfer the stuff there in the future but for now ill let it be.
