2nd hand pc build

[DEST98]

poor university student currently in japan.

kinda need a pc for every day use(gaming drawing cg)

found a 2nd hand office pc that cost about 27000yen 270usd+- i think

is it worth buying?

specs

i7 2600k

no gpu

500gb hard drive

8 g ram

For every day use that seems good, except you mention "gaming", so unless you play really light games I'd also get a used graphics card and put it in there. And maybe a 120gb SSD to put your OS on.

I completely agree

 

Once the next gen of nvidia graphicscards come out there will be plenty of good cheap used cards

 

Good luck finding some!

quick question 4770k 24000yen/ 240usd+- i think worth it?

Nope...

You could get Aryan 1600x for less...

It would be faster and has 2 more cores

yeah nvm

but i heard that 1600X or even 2600 x doesnt really overclock that well

graphic wise waiting for the next gen to come out before checking if i can find a 1070ti for cheap or better1080

if you are planning on throwing a GPU in a stock box check the PSU first most of them don't give you more than the system needs and don't give you a 6 or 8 pin to power for anything more than a 75 watt card like the 1050ti which is more than capable in 1080p gaming I have a cranked up one in my dell OptiPlex it does 60-75FPS no issues. sometimes you can throw another psu in others you need adapters.
