No, it's horribly out dated because phenom is literally from 7 years or more ago. Even though he has modern gpu in there it doesn't mean it'll perform well.

You could buy the computer then put a better processor in it but I don't thing AMD made any other cpu for that motherboard that work effectively
>>
>phenom
god damn
>>
>>378671340
Good to know. Thanks anon
>>
>>378671091
That PC looks like fucking vomit. If you do buy that piece of shit, don't bother posting it in the guts threads over at /g/.
>>
>>378671340
That is the best CPU for that motherboard already. midrange from 2010, sad
>>
>>378671091
>Phenom

No

>MFW I have an athalon II x4 and it still kicks ass
I need to update but I don't play PC games enough to waste my cash. but that athalon II x4 plays BF4 at ultra settings with a gtx660
it bottlenecks though.
>>
>>378671091
Fuck that is a steal for that price if you ask me.

>muh ultra 4k 144fps

It'll run modern games just fine, especially for 300 bucks.
>>
Parts are okay except HDD and CPU, which you'd need a new CPU, MOBO, and RAM for.

The case is kind of ugly too.
>>
It will play games better than a ps4 for the same price
>>
>>378671091
if it comes with the monitors then sure
>>
>6 screens

Y tho
>>
>>378671091
Good if you're only going to use it for a year or two and then replace it.
Otherwise not.

Yes buy it right now.
>>
>>378672430
Athlon, not Athalon, and it's just a Phenom 2 without the L3 cache.
>>
Yes
The phenom might be outdated, but it still holds up somewhat well
The 390 is great, SSD is nice to have and its overall a good deal
>>
>>378674751
Mate I have one, it doesn't.
>>
>>378671091
It's worthless, the only thing salvageable from that pc are the gpu and ssd.
>>
>>378671091
Yea especially if your going to get your feet wet in pc gayman. All you need is a monitor and the cable and your good to go. Everyone is literally shitting on it because its not using parts that came out in the last year so that means you can't play games on it at all.

Just buy it then learn more about pc so you can upgrade correctly in the future. using this shit to play vidya now and pass the time so your upgrade leap is much larger and significant. Otherwise you would be like those people who get a new phone every time a new one comes out to waste a shit ton of money for minimal features and improvements when the previous device worked fine.
>>
>>378675064
At least 30fps in all modern games
Playable
>>
>>378671091
No, Phenom is terrible gaming CPU.
>>
>>378671091
>can run up to 6 screens
do you really need to ask this question op?
>>
>>378672697
you're a fucking retard
>>
>>378671091
Pretty fucking great deal at that price if you ask me. That's a solid starter. If I had no machine, I'd totally get that and then maybe swap out the mobo and CPU for intel and go from there.
>>
>>378676297
The whole point of pc is to not have to deal with 30 fps
>>
>>378671091
If he paid $300 last year, at the very much you should pay $250 for. Electronics, especially useds ones depreciate the fastest because they go through wear and tear the fastest and the fact that new revisions and models come out annually or semiannually.
>>
>>378671091
>windows 10
dropped
>>
>>378681263
the 300 was for the GPU alone. There's close to 1k in that rig.

Buy it for the SSD and GPU and sell the rest of the parts

be careful not to get mugged and stabbed when you meet your seller OP

pick someplace open
>>
>>378671091
Buy it. Not a high end rig by today's standards, but it should still run anything not super-graphics/physics heavy no problem.

At the very least, use it to play dorf fortress and shitpost on /v/
>>
>>378671091
If you plan on putting a little extra into it to get a sandy< and an oc chipset sure.
just noticed
>12GB ram
>2 dimms

I have ivy 5 and a 390x, runs 1440p med/high fine. that gpu will need a repaste
>>
$300 is ok considering the GPU+SSD, but the CPU is trash. Recommend buying a new mobo+CPU
>>
>>378676297
Spengies
>>
>>378681489
yeah new, but that processor, board, and ram are 7 years old. I wouldn't trust it much longer. I'd drop $180 for it, $130 for the GPU, $50 for the rest.
>>
>>378683858
Do this and you've got a pretty acceptable rig on your hands for ~$500 total

>tfw my fx8350 is starting to show its age
Which is fine because it's giving me an excuse to start saving up for a Ryzen setup but I was hoping to get maybe 3 or 4 more years out of my current build
