On the assumption this isn't an SEO-focused Ad, what do you want to do with the computer?

Nope not an ad. Although that's probably what a bot would say.... Hmmm sorry I'm functioning slowly today due to the recent legalization here in Canada. I would like to use it for light gaming. Rocket League, Ck2, Overwatch, a whole steam library (200+) that I haven't touched yet due to sales and not having a pc at the moment. Nothing super demanding and I would like the possibility to upgrade in the future.

 

I had my old pc sent to me from Ireland but FedEx kicked the sh**te out of it so now I'm looking for something basic to play online with my buddies back home.

I feel like the i5 machine is a better value, because it's possible they went crazy cheap on the AM4 motherboard for the other one and got an a320

I think I have some mental block against Acer as I have been burnt by them before but this offer was super tempting. I'm looking for more of a basic gaming rig to have as a base for further upgrading. Thanks for the input buddy, it helped me.

2nd one. Probably want to add another 8 Gb of memory at some point.

The 2nd one. I see that the second pc is better. RX480 vs Vega 11. Pfff. It's obvious the RX480. And the i5-7400 is good.
