Pc build compatibility

Solution


your current setup probably wont even run most games yes you should look into APU it has stronger video potential but even that wont run anything great i would say bare minimum for a gaming PC would be $600 only thing that computer can do is browse the web pretty much.
this is the cheapest i could come up with to actually run games

im using it for low end gaming this is also my first build so im trying to keep it low but if you suggest anything that will still keep it around the same price but its better then by all means

also i was looking at the apu a10 5800k but i dont know if it's worth the extra 60 bucks
