Hello everyone,
New to the PC gaming world and in need of some help. My brother is giving me a two year old PC(http://www.amazon.com/Dell-XPS-8500-Desktop-Professional/dp/B008X6V11K/ref=sr_1_2?ie=UTF8&qid=1448835196&sr=8-2&keywords=dell+8500+8gb+1tb) with an evga gtx 960 2gb graphics card.
The CPU it contains is an i7-3770. Considering these currently sell on Ebay for around $200 to $250 used, would it be worth selling it and replacing it with a newer intel CPU in the $200-$250 range(i5-4690k) for moderate gaming use? Or, should I be good to go as it is.
The only games I plan to play are sim racing games(project cars, assetto corsa, etc.). Other use will be very general PC applications(no video editing or other demanding applications.
Thanks guys.
