Hi all,
http://
Was looking at this PC in my local store and it seems like a very good price for these specs. (keep in mind this is in Canada, so the prices will be higher than US). I want to purchase it for my son who wants a new PC for gaming, and I don't feel comfortable building somethng for him since it is a gift.
The only concern I have is that the power supply seems a bit weak for these specs (especially considering the video card and processor). When I went in store and spoke with the tech guy there, he said it is a silver certified PSU and it shouldn't be a problem at all. He said that it should be able to run 99% of games (including heavy stuff like Arma 3) on high/ultra settings. What do you guys think? is 300W too weak for these specs?
