How's this for a start?

My friend is wanting to get into PC gaming and I ran across this.

http://wilmington.craigslist.org/sys/4559134342.html

Now I know that case isn't great, the cpu is old, and the gou isn't that strong, but is it a good deal for everything that it has to offer? Bare in mind he isn't a hard core gamer, but he does want to play newer games.

[RatedBlam]

That ram alone costs about half of the PC if bought new.

[Gung Pow Chicken]

[scaryjam823]

Would trade my computer for his. 10/10 would play again

[ForsakenLive]

He said he has 16gb from a 2x8gb patriot kit, however I see 4 DIMMS on the motherboard...

[Sauron]

Yeah for 300 bucks it's ok.

[simtransporter]

It's a pretty decent system considering the price.

People say i have powerful pc, but here i see a genuinely good deal which seems almost superior than mine if not the same. How do u call it average?

 

Well if you go read what most people's rigs are in this forum you'll see this pc is really just average if not below average. Check mine on my profile page for example, it's miles better than this one. And mine is still relatively conservative, there are much more powerful and balls out rigs around the community.
