Hello everyone,

I can't explain my situation currently, but I am looking for a good pre-built under $900. I cannot build a PC, nor can I exceed the budget that was given to me. I plan on playing Elder Scrolls Online and Everquest Next Landmark with this PC, so I wanted to know your thoughts on it. Will it play games efficiently?

i5 4440
Nvidia gtx 760 3gb
I believe the PSU is 500 watts

Thanks for any and all help!

Yes, it shall be more than enough for a few years to come.
The 760 shall have norpblem for years to come, and that i5 is generally a all around good one for everything.

If you were to upgrade yourself in the future that 500wat PSU shall limit you.
It's good price for prebuilt, though would be cheaper if you did it yourself.

Please pick me as best answer if I helped :)

Honestly i was expecting a much higher price tag on that. Not a bad price for pre built. (Building it your self would still be cheaper but yeah.)

Is there any way to find out definitively what kind of motherboard and PSU this pre-built uses? Also, when I search for an Nvidia GTX 760 3gb dedicated, I can't find it anywhere. Why is that?

It's probably a generic Asus motherboard made specifically for this computer and a generic power supply.
But there only seem to be 2 and 4gb versions available. I couldn't tell you why there is a 3gb version in this computer.

Edit: logainofhades beat me to it.

Since the card is OEM, does that make it less quality-efficient? In other words, is it a bad video card? Will it be able to handle most games? Will I be able to upgrade the video card in the future?

Thanks

It should be just fine. It will probably be a bit slower than a retail 760, due to the memory interface width. Of course you can upgrade the card in the future. It is still a PCI-E graphics card. It just has a different memory configuration than retail. For the price, that OEM is pretty solid.
