AMD A12-9720P + RX540, adequate?

[DXTN]

So I managed to upgrade my 2013 Lenovo B590 to what I felt like a bargain Acer A515-41G-18GZ with an AMD A12-9720P + RX540 (2gbs GDDR5), 8 gbs of DDR4 and 2tbs of molasses slow (but adequate for my needs) Barracuda 5400rpm storage with 128 cache for the discount price of 530$. I wanna know your toughts on that oh wise LTT forum, is it adequate? or should I had spent my money on a better laptop?

If you were lucky you would have maybe been able to sqeeze in a 4 core pentium n4200 with 8GB of ram and 120GB of SSD storage. Now the storage is significantly less, but i believe that would have been a better deal.

 

At least that is what id suggest if it was a general use laptop. Idk what you plan to use yours for

Light gaming (as i'm intenting to catch up with all the 2008's games I've been stocking on my steam library) and mostly CAD work.

2 weeks in with the machine it has been amazing for the games I've thrown at it (so far crysis 2 and cities Skylines, all at high) but it has been kind of sluggish for my Job with Civil3d, I'd say it has been about a 20% upgrade compared to my old I3-3110M.
Now, I'm thinking of adding a 120 M.2 sata SSD to wrap up the thing, hopefully that improves my CAD situation

The CPU is slow as hell

 

Where are you from? Budget?

As stated, with the limited budget of 550$, that's the best value I could find in my area (Peru)
