I came across a PC today that is being sold from Ebuyer for about £420. The video card is a bit rubbish but what games would I actually be able to play on this PC?

PC Specs:
Intel Core i3-3220
Nvidia GT 610
8GB RAM
1TB HDD
450W PSU

I would be playing games of a resolution of 1920x1080.

Thank you :) I figured around the 420 pound price that the CyperPower PC was priced at, but if it was more budget I'd put the 7790 or 7850 into the build.

I have a budget of about £580 and I am definitely going to build the PC myself. I was not wanting to buy this PC in the slightest and was just curious of what games it could run. My current plan is:

Intel Core i5-3470
Gigabyte GTX 660
MSI B75MA-P45
1TB WD Caviar Blue
8GB Corsair XMS3 1600MHz
XFX ProSeries 550W
CiT Vantage
Windows 7 Home Premium 64-Bit

I stretched it up to £610 if that's close enough to be "about" £580. If not, you can step down the GPU a little bit.

As your CPU ages, I'd recommend you be open to getting an after market CPU cooler and overclocking to get more life out of your right. Ideally, I'd up my budget £20 and get the CPU cooler from the start if you can simply because it's more of a headache when you don't install it during the build.

Looks like a good PC plan, but the new Intel Haswell processors have come out and the first of the Nvidia 700 series GPUs have come out, soon to be joined by the 8000 series Radeon video cards. I'm going to put together a PC plan with up to date parts very soon and I'll let you know when I make it. Have you got any ideas on new PC parts?
