What do you guys think of this, from my perspective it should do what a budget gamer wants, is basically new, from a trusted brand, plus warrenty. But my problem is what FPS would it get today on PUBG, Fortnite and GTA V on at least 720p?

[hello_there_123]

that would get like 10 fps or crash

You may be able to play games at 720p, however the 710 is barely faster if any than most integrated solutions. I would not trust this to run GTA v or PUBG. It may run but it would not generally be a pleasant experience. console would be better.

OP what is your budget?

Op you would be better off getting something like this

 

A GTX 280 from 2009 would be faster than a gt 710 in everything.

Actually, This looks a bit better, im unfamiliar with the UK/Euro market.

You can get a Ryzen 3 2200G, 2x4gb of DDR4, and a 120gb boot drive SSD all brand new for around £150.

To add to this I would suggest getting the cheapest 2nd hand AM4 motherboard you can find (which you can usually get for about another £30 on eBay) and then you have the base of a much better system for your £180 budget.

Do you have an old case you could put the parts in? It would just be the power supply after that, wouldn't it? This would give you a much better upgrade path as well. You could save for a decent dedicated GPU, better CPU, more RAM etc down the line.

That would be my recommendation anyway.

honestly, I'd save up till 300gbp and get something like this.

just eat instant ramen instead of real food lol? (/s, but you should still save up imo)

if you look for used ssd (mabye you could survive on 240GB), used 2200g, used 2x4 ram, you can prob get that down to 250, wait for psu sales, and mobo sales, etc.

also, the best pc case is a plank of wood.

Thanks guys I appreciate the help, I did think abut AMD'S APU'S for a while now, and it might actually work, however I would need a new case and PSU, which I will save up to get, So Many Thanks
