Advise for a pc

[Silentshaper]

So I have been a console peasant for a long time and I finally decide to make the evolutionary jump to PC, but I am a full noob with the idea of building a pc so I did the logical think to do seek a pre built, I saw one on ebay but I don't know if it is good or bad or a scam, is a full PC with keyboard a mouse and even a monitor, here are the specs, give me any advise or opinion you have

really bad computer, honestly buying an old dell with a 2000 series cpu and buying a gtx 1050 TI would suit your purposes much better

I'll tell you what every else is going to tell you; just build it yourself. 

 

Advantages of a custom build:

Chose your own parts

Far cheaper

Far more reliable (don't come with shitty powersupplies and garbage cooling)

Better upgrade options (prebuilds usually come with a crappy motherboard and tiny powersupply)

In some cases, longer warranty (eg corsair PSU's are atleast 5 year warranty whereas some prebuilds only offer a year warranty)

Far more cost efficient

 

Advantages of a prebuilt:

You don't have to build it

 

 

honestly, it's nicknamed adult lego for a reason. Ofcourse you won't know how to build a pc, and you never will until you try it. The parts go in set places and nowhere else, it's hard to screw it up.

 

edit: that pc is trash and you could build a far better one for $100 less

Give me a budget and I'll spec you out a PC\

 

 

do not buy that computer. ever.

@Armakar +1 , Honestly it doesnt take a genius, i learned it by straight out buying some parts that people said were good and fallowing mobo manual directions, watch like a few videos about building pcs and you will be at least 10 times more experienced than i was with my first build

[Dogsparky]

as stated above, it isn't hard to build a computer, i watched a few short videos while in the process of buying parts, when it came to building it, it was fine, the hardest thing or things would probably be cable management or the CPU cooler depending on what you get

That computer is absolute trash.  I'd be surprised if the damn thing could load a game, much less PLAY it.

 

Build one.
