Gaming Optiplex Build

[carmadman]

Hi, I am thinking of buying and upgrading a dell optiplex (MT) with an Intel i3 processer and 8gb of Ram.

I want to put a geforce gtx 1050ti in it, so that I can game at 1080p resolution. (but my budget is £280)

 

What other upgrades do you think I need and what do you suggest to make it a great gaming rig.

 

Thanks

How much does the Optiplex cost? And the GTX1050TI.

[carmadman]

the optiplex costs £120 in used condition and the gtx 1050ti costs £80 in used condition

You should really consider getting a cheap 120GB SSD for your OS and a few important programs. They can be found for around 20 bucks. Just make sure that it is NOT a DRAM-less SSD.
