I found a computer for sale on craigslist and I proposed a trade and I need some help as to if you guys think the pc is good and a good trade

I am going to trade my 500gb Xbox One with 2 controllers, a few games, and a charging station along with an old Asus tf300t tablet for this:

https://rockford.craigslist.org/sys/5567888446.html

 

It has 12gb of ram, a nice gaming motherboard, an fx-8150,xfx 7970, 2tb hdd, and a 6gb ssd

 

Is this a capable gaming pc for the $400 listing price, or would I be getting a good deal for my trade? Thankyou and any advice is appreciated.

Meh CPU and 60gb ssd is nearly useless but for $400 not bad though.

Thats that. If you need to get in touch chances are you can find someone that knows me that can get in touch.

It actually looks like a really capable pc(even though the fx8150 is kinda old).

I'd say go for it, but make sure he shows you some benchmarks and stress tests before you leave; i don't want you to end up getting scammed.

The list price looks like a good deal, but the trade deal that you're negotiating with the seller feels like a rip-off. You're giving away too much for too little in return.

Only yours, you don't shitpost on the same level that we can, mainly because this thread is finally dead and should be locked.

I wasn't wrong. It's extremely rare that I am. I provided sources as well. Different devs can disagree. Further, we now have confirmed discrepancy from Twitter about he use of the pre-release 1080 driver in AMD's demo despite the release 1080 driver having been out a week prior.

You apparently haven't seen his responses to questions on YouTube. He is very condescending and aggressive in his comments with which there is little justification. He acts totally different in his videos. I don't necessarily care for this content style and there is nothing really unique about him or his channel. His endless dick jokes and toilet humor are annoying as well.

and did you already talk to him about the trade?

Yes he agreed to trade, so this is what I planned:

In my pc right now I have an fx-6300, 8gb ram, 120gb ssd, (x2)1tb Hdd, gtx 960, and a budget motherboard. 

I was thinking I trade for this, swap the cpu and motherboard, with mine, resell this for like $300-$500, and then buy a gtx 980?

 

Would this be a good idea?

Your current build is already a decent once. Are you getting low FPS with the build you have currently?

Not really, most games are about 50fps on high-ultra, but I want to get an oculus rift over the summer with a part time job, so I need to upgrade my videocard

Wait till you get one. Don't prematurely spend money on your build yet.
