Hi, my first time asking a question.

I am a noob when it comes to hardware. As i cannot afford to buy a new pc for some time, i thought about buying a used brand build pc (like Hp compaq 8200) and upgrade its psu and ram to 8gb and then add a new gtx 1050.

Will that work? If so, are any of these worth buying?

My Main concern is that i heard motherboard in some these only provide 35w and gtx 1050 is a 75w card. Is this true?

Please help, I'm really low on budget and this might be my only option. I just wanna play Witcher 3, Dragon age Inquisition, and Shadow of mordor. I could even go as low as 720p and medium settings.

It will be possible to add a new PSU unless the case is of small form factor(check the image below). If the case is of small form factor then still you can change the PSU but you have to find TFX PSU(check the image below) which is lot harder to find than regular one.

All the edited prices are from Amazon.in. So buy every thing from Amazon.in
INR 3000 extra but is completely worth it. All components comes with 3Yr manufacturer warranty.
