Hey there. I just got a Gaming PC from iBuyPower. So far, I'm super happy with it. I do have something I'm curious about, however..

The GPU that came with the tower is a geforce gt 610. I happen to have an AMD Radeon 6850 Sapphire chip I am not currently using. Should I try to pop that bad boy in my tower? I'm trying to sell it through Craig's List for $50, and nobody is taking.. Don't know if that's a sign of the quality.

My PC Specs:

Processor AMD FX(tm)-4300 Quad-Core Processor
Manufacturer AMD
Speed 3.8 GHz
Number of Cores 4
Video Card NVIDIA GeForce GT 610
Manufacturer NVIDIA
Chipset GeForce GT 610
Dedicated Memory 1.0 GB
Total Memory 3.9 GB
Memory 8.2 GB
Operating System Microsoft Windows 8 (build 9200), 64-bit
Service Pack 0
Size 64 Bit
Edition Basic
Display Maximum Resolution 1440 x 900

----------

I also have 16gb of RAM not being used at the moment. The maker is Corsair. I'm wondering if I should throw those in there as well.

That's a good point. I'm not sure what came standard. I will investigate before swapping any parts out. If anything, I have a 500w PSU that is also unusued that I may be able to use.

By the way, I had a rig I was building that failed, hence all the spare parts. XD
 


ah, it's always nice to have parts laying around.
