Hi guys,

This is my last resort before going into a local PC store. I recently brought a 'Gaming PC' from Harvey Norman.. now I realise its most likely far from a 'Gaming PC' and I get a sneaking suspicion Harvey Norman ripped me off (surprise surprise).

I understand I got ripped off only here to try get some help :)

PC will run games like League of Legends fine however, Fall out 4/GTA V/Mad max etc the PC seems to have no hope.

PC specs as below

AMD A10 7700k 3.4GHz/3.8Ghz SKT FM2
16GB DDR3 'Gaming memory'
2TB SATA hard disk drive
128 GB SATA SSD
NVidia Geforce GTX750-2GB GDDR5-PCI-E 'Gaming edition'
Aquila Gaming chassis with 400w gaming 80+ PSU
Running Windows 10

If anyone has any suggestions that would be greatly appreciated, I'm hoping the above specs should be able to run at least high graphics without a problem.

Thanks :)

you got a begginers rig

a10 is bottom of the barrel so to speak gaming wise


the gtx 750 is good, but as you found out lacks the power to run newer games at higher than medium settings

it is also bottlenecked by that processor in games like gta5



the bones on this pc are worthless, as there are no cpu upgrade options

return it, get your money back


then create a post here with your budget, and ask what the best build you can get would be


=(

sorry to be the bringer of bad news
