You should also take the time to format and proof-read your item description properly - it's very messy to read at the moment.

Edit: Just realised it's not your listing, you're thinking of buying it

Thanks for reading all this by the way!

By the way, my desktop is a docked laptop. Get over it, No seriously, I have an exterrnal monitor, keyboard, mouse, headset, ethernet and cooling fans all connected. Using it feels no different to a desktop, it works for several hours if the power goes out, and disconnecting just a few cables gives me something I can take on the go. There's enough power for all games I play and it even copes with basic (and some not-so-basic) video editing. Give it a go - you might just love it.

Looking at listings the GPU itself is going for 600-700+. So 550 for that is a steal

for 170 quid it doesn't seem bad for what it is but don't expect to do major intense AAA gaming on that thing. You would be looking at 1080P at medium for decent frames

I be using it for 3d modelling. Not sure if i3 is decent enough or just more blinded by the price

3D modeling? I mean sure you can use it for that but expect for things to take FOREVER doing so

From what I'm reading that its not the matter of cores a CPU for that make a difference. Its High clock speed that does for 3d modeling

 

From what I seen, is that you want a really nice and fast CPU and a lot of RAM

Because the real price of it would be around $600. That is ignoring the GPU shortage.

Can I ask is 275 a good price for this desktop?

I guess, but would still not recommend the config. Considoring the seller included an GT 710 the CPU is probably just an i5-10400F. If you could get a GPU yourself, or if the CPU had an iGPU, ask for the seller to sell it without the GT 710 and the price I would say would be resonable would be around £220.

 

This would be the system brand new:

PCPartPicker Part List
Type Item Price
CPU Intel Core i5-10400F 2.9 GHz 6-Core Processor £130.47 @ Scan.co.uk
Motherboard ASRock H410M-HDV Micro ATX LGA1200 Motherboard £59.47 @ Ebuyer

Power Supply GameMax GP 400 W 80+ Bronze Certified ATX Power Supply £29.49 @ AWD-IT
  Prices include shipping, taxes, rebates, and discounts  
  Total £344.02

Again, not a config I would recommend, but it is what it is.
