Lol definitely upgrade your phone. Thats a dual core system. It'll be phased out so fast.

 

What...I'm confused. The picture says its a dual core but the product description says its a quad-core i5. If it's an i5, I'd say go with the mobo upgrade

i was thinking of getting it for my brother for his birthday cause he wants to get into pc gaming and doesnt have the money to build or buy a nice system so i thought that would get him started. I don't know

If you were my brother and you did that for me, i'd be pretty damn happy.

Even if you get him the combo he would still need to get the rest of the components. If he can afford to get the rest of the stuff them the combo would be good but if he can't you're better off getting a new phone. If anything he can start off with an APU build to get his beak wet.

If I didn't have the sytem I had I would be happy too

Exactly, but like duenstein said, he'd still need to buy all the other components. Does he have the money for that? There's no point in just having a motherboard and a chip lool

Thanks for your help guys, I am not sure so I will think about it till I get my pay check next week

Hey, just going to chime in on this discussion. I'm having a bit of trouble finding a gaming keyboard that matches the rest of my setup. Does anyone know of any white gaming keyboards with a blue LED back lighting? I've only been able to find an i-Rocks keyboard that isn't mechanical. Help is much appreciated. Cheers
