Pretty garbage ngl. Also you are missing a psu, case, cooler, ssd,...

 

The fx cpu is just plain bad for gaming today and I cannot recommend it. Absolutely horrible for streaming.

 

Don't get this computer even for this price it is not worth it at all.

350eur is a scam, for 350eur I would expect a SSD and a better cpu, likely something from Intel

Compared to that other thread this thing is godlike basically.

 

Whilst not the best system this is actually A SOLID GAMING SYSTEM. Still don't expect to stream too hard as you'll have to use your gpu as an encoder. For 400€ for basically a itx system this is pretty good.

It would be fine for older games, newer AAA games not so much.

I think it should be fine for this game. You might have to lower some graphics settings though.

It seems to be OK but is 250gb enough for games like GTA V? Because it takes 100gb space

Barely but storage is pretty cheap. Op better has a good core system than a crap one with more storage.

Do keep in mind this system is at the very bottom end for being good enough for playing modern AAA games so don't expect too much from it. It is pretty good for GTA V tho.

Ocing might be able to remedy that, since a 2600k is also a good ocer like the 2500k and the 2500k was known to hit 5ghz pretty easily as long as you have a good board + cooler, plus gpu can be oced aswell

 

Though ocing can only get you so far, and on these older platforms ocing is an absolute must anyways since most of these old architectures are very slow without an oc

I think this is a good configuration

 

https://www.ebay.com/itm/174944025188?hash=item28bb79fa64%3Ag%3AKOQAAOSwzndhRRs1&LH_ItemCondition=4
 

found a GPU on eBay

Gebraucht und voll Funktionsfähig What does this mean?

 

and also does your PC have warranty and also what monitor are you choosing?

I don't agree on the psu as it's not really good BUT this would be a much better config. However that is a bidding 780ti so good luck with that easily double that soon.

Those older itx boards weren't the best overclockers too this board seems to be a bit on the lower end of the itx z77 boards.
