Posted March 15, 2016 It pretty good I'd rate a solid 14 out of 20 for a medium budget gaming PC What about storage? You didn't list what you had there. Also fans... Get a new CPU, mobo, ram. Maybe an i3 6100 is a good upgrade. Go for a cheap H110 or H170 mobo and 8gb DDR4 ram at 2133. Impressive overclock you have there on the Pentium though keep the case and the PSU and the cooler. Gpu is on point Overall nice computer. Any pictures you can share? I'm here to help people and have fun.
