Is this pc worth it ?

[Midnitewarrior4]

So a guy is selling his pc. It's a mini itx system with the Silverstone rvzo1 case, 450 watt gold Silverstone sfx psu, 500gb hdd, amd a8-7600,MSI A88XI AC moBo,  8gb of ram and windows 7 home.

He's asking 150$ cad because it keeps crashing in him. Said it just powers down on him..... so first is it worth it as a secondary pc ? I have an older gpu to throw in it for better graphics performance. And Second should I even risk buying it if it's crashing ? I mean I could always part it out. Need some input as someone us going to look at it at 2 pm tomo and I have first dibs currently

I'd say go for it. I'd say it's crashing because of a bad drive, CPU, or powersupply probably. But for only 150 bucks it's proabably worth it even just to part it out

seems a good price for case/psu/hdd/ram  alone , if mobo or cpu are faulty , not very expensive to replace , PSU is worth it since its SFX and a very good brand and decent wattage 

 

id say go for it

Most likely a PSU issue. Make sure to ask for the Windows key.

Sounds like PSU issue or possibly capacitors but the crappy caps problem has been gone for a while now - though they still can go - but not like the entire run of mobos in 1 to 2 years like back in the early 2k's.

Looks good, but don't expect much from it. For 150 bucks it is not a bad deal, try experimenting with it.

Ok cool I'll go for it, hopefully I can make it in time. I have a drive test at 10 am and most of you know how long the lines at the dmv can be

Here in the Bradenton Florida area they're super short.

 

But what I can remember of New Jersey, good luck.
