Do you know if your current Lenovo PC is at all upgradable? $400 USD doesn't give you much room to work with. At that price point, you're looking at a Ryzen APU with integrated graphics, or maybe even a console if you're willing to quit CS:GO.

Whats the specs on the ideacentre? Also dude give it more than time before you bump your post.

Is this the model you have currently? There may be some decent parts you could reuse making an overall better experience and save money.

It helps to know what exactly your working with, $500 on a fresh build could create an overall worse experience. If you have a decent 8th or 9th gen i5 or i7 you may just need 8GB of RAM, an SSD, and a low profile GPU and you'll be set.

I did
