Hello.

 

I'm trying to buy a pc and finally play something that isn't  from 10 years ago.

 

I found this Pre-built from IBuyPower: https://www.amazon.com/iBUYPOWER-AM002i-Desktop-Gaming-PC/dp/B01N2RLS05/ref=dp_ob_title_ce?th=1

 

Is this a good pc? I suspect that the Power Supply and the Cooler are bad since they don't talk about it.

 

Thanks for the help, and sorry for any spelling mistake!

Not at all. It's bad. Build yourself one

No, you could build it cheaper, honestly.

If you absolutely want/need a pre-built... this one is a better offer.

It's not. RX 480 4gb and even a 8gb is no where near 1070 performance

I said better offer, as in the price.

I know it's nowhere near 1070 performance.  

Just by price, it makes a little more sense for the hardware he's getting in that price range.

We don't know what he is doing with that PC anyway. And what monitor he is trying to pair with

We know what he's going to do with it, play games.  Check the original post.
Don't know the monitor though, so I'll give you that one.

Yeah. Sorry about that.

 

As I say i'm going to play games. The monitor is something that i'm going to buy when i do some research but it's going to be about 350$.

 

Also, thanks for the quick answers guys. I guess i'm going to built it by myself.

Probably for the best. 

You'll get much more control of the hardware, and you'll get a better deal overall.

Yep, Austin Evans has a pretty good video on how to build a PC if you need any help, so does LTT.  (And you could always ask us)

Also, thank you.
