Hi,
I was planning on purchasing this computer;
Customizations:
CPU: AMD FX 6300 Black Edition
CPU Cooler: Zalman CNPS5X Performa
Operating System: Windows 8.1 (64-bit)
Included
Motherboard: Gigabyte 78LMT-USB3
Included
RAM: 4GB DDR3 1333mhz (1x4GB)
Included
Hard Drive: 500GB S-ATAIII 6.0Gb/s
Optical Drive: 22x DVD±RW DL S-ATA
Graphics card: Onboard Intel GMA4500
Sound card: Onboard 7.1 Audio
Case: EZCool Mesh ATX
PSU: 500W PSU (ATX 12v 2.0v)
Warranty: 3 Year SureCare Warranty
£333.59
(http://www.dinopc.com/shop/pc/Stego-AMD-4130-95p1635.htm -> This computer with a Zalman CNPS5X Performacooling fan and processor upgraded to AMD FX 6300 Black Edition).
I was wondering what people here thought of its value for money. I would largely be using it for normal gaming (playing games such as Supreme Commander, Company of Heroes (and hopefully the second Company of Heroes), Fear 3, Battlefield 3, Timeshift and Crysis), watching videos and browsing.
I was hoping to use my old ATI Radeon HD 5570 (400SP 650MHz, 1GB DDR3 1.6GHz 128-bit) graphics card in it. Does anyone know if it would be incompatible?
I would be ordering in the next week or so. My budget limit is around £350 (including shipping) and I live in England.
Cheers,
Tom
