Low Budget PC. Is it any good?

Nick_1999 · Jan 31, 2016

3.8GHz AMD FX-4300 4-Core CPU
Gigabyte 78LMT-USB3 Motherboard
NVIDIA GeForce GTX 750 1GB Graphics Card
500GB Sata III Hard Drive
[AMD] 4GB Standard 1600MHz DDR3
AvP Mamba Gaming Case w/ Blue Fan
Vibox 500W 80Plus Certified PSU
24x DVD-RW Optical Drive
Lifetime Evolution Warranty - Build Charge, Shock-Proof Packaging, Express Delivery, 2 Year Parts Cover, Lifetime Labour & Tech Support

I have no clue if these specs are any good for about 350 built and shipped. Im just looking for a casual gaming PC that can run games like csgo. Any help is appreciated
Thanks

4GB ram is too low. No operating system is listed so it may not be included. That power supply is probably garbage. Buyer beware ...

CPU - get the 6300. Roughly the same price but better overclocking, and more cores.
GPU - 750 or 750ti is the best bang for buck.
Storage - SSDs are super cheap now. A 500gb ssd isn't much at all.
RAM - Might as well get 8gb considering it's dirt cheap right now.
PSU - Don't skimp. You might want to upgrade down the road. Get 430w+, and at least bronze certified from a reputable brand.

the 860K + R7 360 will run most games at medium at 1920x1080

i would love to build one like you suggested but i have little to no knowledge on building PC other than just some youtube videos.

building your own is not hard. if you can turn a screwdriver and insert a video game cartridge into its slot, you can build a PC.
