Question

Want to buy a new gaming pc can check it out if it's good ?

Jul 7, 2017 8:54AM PDT

There is a pc with Intel Pentium and GeForce GT 1030 for pretty cheap but I don't now about the motherboard it's a FUJITSU D3400-B2 µATX
Here is the site and all the specs:https://capital.lv/Produkti/Katalogs/Gaming/Gaming-datoru-komplekti/Dators-Capital-NEO-KX-Dragoon-G4560-8GB-1TB-GTX-1030-2GB-E2216H-Klav-pele
It has pretty good specs and the screen,mouse and keyboard is included . The videos that I saw of Intel Pentium and GeForce GT 1030 together were pretty good but I'm not sure about the motherboard. I would appreciate some help in this situation.
P.S I don't mind if I have to play the games on medium or minimal settings as long as it gets 30 fps I'm fine with it
Thanks for the help

I really don't mind if I have to change settings to min or med as long as its 30 fps and I can just upgrade in the future

That matches OK with models I've seen.

I think it's a nice enough step up for the 1030 GPU. You get the 1050 GPU which gamers are using for 1080p gaming without much to gripe about and ONLY ONE ISSUE.

The system uses a single 8GB memory stick so later you need to get a second one to get the CPU up to full speed.

But good start.

Looks like a step back.

4GB RAM instead of 8. A puny 120GB SSD.

A pair of 4GB sticks to get the speed back from the CPU and dump the 1TB and put those dollars into the large as you can get SSD.

You can add a HDD later for cheap.

Better

Both machines will require ram work.

The cpu's are about equal.

The cyberpower comes with an OS but a weaker gpu.

The dataleks does not show an OS but it has a better gpu.

Select the option to change the ram to 2x8GB @ 2133.
