Questions to ask when buying a second hand gaming PC

[LeRock]

I'm going to buy a used Gaming PC soon, what questions should I ask the seller? Thanks

if it has all basic info (cpu, RAM type etc.) then all you need to ask is how much it has been used, has it been overclocked at any point, what games has been played with it...

Is there an authentic Windows sticker, only other question I can think of if it applies.

Why are you selling it? This is the MOST important question you can ask in my opinion, although any answer they give you is probably complete BS.

Are you willing take about half of what you just priced it to me for?
If the answer to this is "no", then you don't want it.

Thanks for the good questions. I'll be sure to ask them!

Is there an admin password on the bios screen. I wouldn't care about the OS - I'd install it new anyway, but you want to get into bios.
