  • Did we make a mistake buying such a cheap gaming PC on eBay??? We spent only $77 so either something has to be wrong with it or it’s too good of a deal to be true! Regardless, we will unbox it and find out what we got.

      Is it a pick-me-up? If so, good pricing. The ram and ssd alone are worth more than the cost. If you intend to hold on to it for the long haul though, that's a worse idea. It has no upgrade paths, and all upgrades involve other upgrades to the point where starting fresh with 400-600 dollar build is better.

    this would be a good computer to get if you have other better parts that you can put in from previous builds that died for various reasons, like lets say the psu died on one and you can just transplant a better CPU, provided you got one that's compatible with the mobo, and a better gpu, then you might have something that might be able to keep up with newer games, if you're looking for something that runs older games just fine? then this pc might be great for those looking to play some classics.

    i mean yea it is someones old trash but it could have a second life as a office pc or small home server. 77 dollar is a goog price for if you consider that even the cheapest pc all brand new you can build 300+ is and it would more or less similar perform. ok the power consumption would be better and some modern cpu command sets would perform better in hardware as in software but those are negligible unless you relay heavily on that specific cpu feature.

    A bit more RAM might help, another 2x 4GB, or even a a pair of 2GB for a cheapskate 12GB may be a better gaming experience than 8GB
