Is this pc liquid cooled it is kinda unclear

[2009buddyboy2009]

.. This is the pc I was looking at and will probably get But I can't tell, is it liquid cooled or not?!

And how much could I OC the cpu? To a SAFE overclock.

Don't buy this, you can literally build a much, much better PC for the same price.

These PCs are made from shitty components....hence how they make a profit

The GPU is crap, the PSU is a joke at 350W, the RAM is likely crappy, the HDD is likely crappy...all in all these are just bad PCs. Even the case looks cheap and mostly made of plastic.

Watch some YouTube videos on how to build a PC. If you can put together Legos, you can build a PC. It's pretty easy.

And yes, it has liquid cooling, but that brand sucks, and you can get an equivalent liquid cooler from a reputable brand like Corsair for $50-70

These custom PC building websites are awful. They use crappy parts to make a profit. You really aren't getting a deal in the end. Cut out the middle-man, buy quality parts for cheaper off Amazon and build it yourself. My first PC build took me a little over an hour.

You can also buy OEM Windows OS systems for $40-50 from websites like Bonanza. They are legit.

I wouldn't really know what you could "safely" OC the CPU to considering your running it off a 350W processor with a no name liquid cooler in a no name case that probably doesn't have fantastic airflow.

Save all that money and build a proper gaming PC. There are tons and tons of videos on great $500 builds that are frequently updated.

Yes I know, but my parents are paying for it not me, I have built my own pc twice now and I will be replacing the gpu with a gtx 550ti that I have spare and a spare 1 tb wd black and an 250gb ssd with Windows 7 OS. (Windows 10 is a joke)

So...that still doesn't justify buying this piece of crap...and Windows 10 actually isn't a joke at all. It performs quite well for gaming.

If you've built two PCs yourself why are you even considering a prebuilt piece of shit? It makes no sense.

 

[J-Roc and The Rockpile]

The GTX 550 Ti is nearly the same as the R7 250, just two years older...so thats not an upgrade lol....and putting in a 1 TB HDD is pretty standard...not a performance upgrade. The only benefit would be the SSD, but you are still left with crappy RAM, and an overpriced CPU/MOBO combo in a corny looking case that probably sucks, with a horrendously underpowered and shitty PSU

So if your parents are paying for this, why not just buy the parts you need...sounds like you have a GPU, SSD and an HDD...it just doesnt make sense to buy this

Because my parents are paying for it. It's the pc's there getting me for Christmas (technically I wasn't supposed to know

Well tell them you know about it, and that it's a piece of sh*t and a waste of money. I'm sure they'd appreciate knowing that ahead of time rather than pissing away over $500 on a piece of garbage.

Just have them order all the parts and bundle it in some wrapping or something as your Santa gift. That's what my parents did for me 😉

🙁 she won't, it has to be prebuilt 🙁. What's a "decent" prebuilt?

Well after evaluating the story, I assume you are lying and just using this whole thing as an excuse to not build a pc because you are to lazy and/or are scared to build one. If for some reason this story is true, let your mother read this next post I make

Hello persons mother. I am here to try to convince you to buy your son parts for his pc and let him build his own. Pc building is a great experience for people, and has a good value to it. He would treat his pc a lot better if it was his own making. If you don't believe he can do it, there are thousands of resources out there to help him. If you want, you or the father could help him too for a bonding experience. Store build pc's are often very poor quality and not worth the money. In fact, I can't think of one pc company that doesn't overcharge an absurd amount, or use terrible quality parts. I would highly suggest that you get him parts, and let him build it on his own. You can bundle them together in some way for a present. After this whole message and your still not convinced, find a local shop to build a pc themselves, or have a friend or relative build it. Here's a comparison, would you buy areallyk house without furniture (lets say 10k worth of furniture), or buy a 400k house just because it has furniture in it already, but it isn't nearly as high quality furniture as you could've gotten on your own. The choice seems pretty obvious now doesnt it? Thank you for reading this whole thing if you did too .

Yeah, I can smell the bullsh*t from a mile away. Story makes no sense at all...but remember he's built 2 PC's before...its just that his mom is will only pay for a prebuilt POS.

Seems to be very, very logical.

If they are that willing to waste money, can your parent's send some of that money my way? It' almost X-mas time!

If you've built 2 PC's before, shouldn't you know what constitutes a good PC?

Gotta love the blatant lying on this forum sometimes.

PS - the words "decent" and "prebuilt" should never be used in the same sentence when referring to a gaming desktop.

Ok. And no I promise you it's no lie. I have built my grandparents pic for them. (Intel core 2 duo e8400 with a gt 640 low profile card. Motherboard was some type of Hp prebuilt from a friends old of that stopped working, and I also went ahead and used the old hp compaq case it was in since it was just for web browsing and would only be used by my grandparents, then I threw in a 500gb wd green (I think I can't remover for sure, it was either green or blue)

Ok, well you can continue to ignore the multiple suggestions or just stop the thread altogether, because this is a complete waste of time.

You don't know as much as you think you do, that's pretty obvious. It's fine not to be an expert, but don't sit here and lie and waste people's time (who actually are very knowledgeable) when they are trying to help you.

Bottomline: Don't get a prebuilt. That's it. If you do, it's your loss, and it'll cost you a hell of a lot more money rebuilding nearly the whole thing to be worthwhile for gaming.

And also yes I have built 2 pc's ,one for my friend and then the one for my grandparents. (They were both just thrown together with cheap parts that I knew would work for them) and again I'm not paying for this pc, so why not just let her get me a prebuilt, besides I can always replace the gpu with my energy efficient gtx 550ti. ( if not its still beter than my current garbage core 2 quad q8400 pc with a cheap gigabyte motherboard and a harddrive that is starting to fail, also I only have a gtx 550ti in this one, which is fine, just the cpu is underpowered, though I overclocked it to 3ghz from 2.6ghz 🙁 can't OC anymore because of the limited cpu fan power. Have an aftermarket rocket fish cpu Cooler and it just doesn't cut it 🙁 oh well I only do minecraft with a few friends and sometimes some world of Warcraft.

Cool beans bro. Sounds like you're a top notch expert and know exactly what you're doing. (by the way, even your title demonstrates your lack of knowledge, the link is VERY clear that the prebuilt is liquid cooled LOL)

Enjoy wasting your mother's money on your prebuilt.
