    If you want to get a cheap gaming PC, go find a discarded office desktop and replace the integrated graphics card with an low profile GTX/RTX graphic card. Most likely the office desktop has a decent CPU and RAM since they were used for demanding tasks and with a low profile graphics card inserted you actually get a great gaming pc for cheap!

    i've found a free hp that can run apex at 24fps skyrim at 50 gta 5 over 60 and gayshit impact horribly lowest settings possible under 30 and honorable mention for some reasons enabling anti-aliasing no matter the quality or game just doesn't effect the frames at all meaning i can just drop the res and put anti-aliasing of such high quality it looks like dlss though fsr2 kills the fps and newer doesn't run it sucks a bit in gaming but it's actually decent for 3d modeling those are the real performance you can get for free

    In 2008 I was going around different garage sales during the summer time and wanted to see if anyone had any cheapo pc's that they were selling. I was in luck, for 15 dollars I scored the following: -A shoddy beige case that did not have the side panel -No gpu, or onboard gpu at all -And no powersupply But I did get -A working amd based asus motherboard -An athlon 1ghz processor -1gb of sd ( ?) ram -A 250w powersupply Thankfully at the time we had already upgraded our dells dimension 4600 fx5200 gpu to a fx6600, so I had the 5200, and I had a few spare 250gb drives so in some ways while this was under powered by every margin, it served great for web browsing early youtube and other websites and as a nas. I ran windows home server edition but it crapped itself hard and lost some data, but thankfully I kept external drives so back to windows 2000 rather than some beta garbage setup. Eventually by 2009 we bought a newer agp based gpu for the dell a visiontek 3650 that did not perform any better but could run higher resolutions without shitting itself on l4d2 so the 6600 went into the garage sale build. Kept that thing for another year till I saved up a bit and bought a cheap case, a E6300 with 2gb of ram and a very cheap 8600gt all for around 50 dollars. I forget what motherboard but I think it was some intel motherboard that a friends brother had and didn't need since he got so much computer stuff from his workplace at the time. I graduated school and blew 1000 that my parents gave as a gift on a proper desktop computer at the time in 2011 so from the athlon, to the core2duo, to a phenom ii it's wild the performance increases in that short time frame. Now it's like you go from stuff in 2016-2018 to now and you're getting only better performance for 1440p/4k and above 60. Software that runs sluggishly still runs worse and youtube, the main source of video consumption runs way worse than it ever has. Most software has annoying circles for loading because network based website apps have to load garbage. I thought things would get better but no they haven't.
