Hi all,
I have a few bits of PC gear hanging around that I’d like to put together into a semi decent gaming PC. Can people advise if the below equip will suffice, or whether I should upgrade (and what to)? I don’t want to spend too much money (<£300), and I am not bothered about top end gaming. Prob just want to play Counter strike with out issue, to be honest.
Not changing (but welcome confirmation…):
Graphics Card: MSI Radeon RX480 8gb. Happy with this.
SSD: 120GB sata III Drevo X1 (Read 550 MB/s; Write 400MB/s).
OS: Win 10.
Case: Built my own from bits of metal. Open based.
Power: EVGA Supernova 1300 G2 (1300w)
Extras: Decent fan; keyboard, mouse, etc
Need to Change?:
MOBO: Gigabyte GA-990XA UD3 (picture attached)
Almost certainly need to be upgraded:
CPU: AMD Athlon II X2 240 2.8GHz 2mb Cache Dual core processor
RAM: two 2gb DDR3 memory (PC3 8500)
Peace and Tranquillity to all (until I am on Counter strike….)
