So I bought a used computer off of kijiji a couple weeks back. I'm just wondering if I got a good deal on the price I pay and how my gaming experience will be. I'll take any advice on my system in general.

I payed $400 Canadian in total for everything which is, at the moment, $300 USD.


Specs are:

CPU: intel core i5-4590 3.3 ghz quad core processor

GPU: Asus GTX 750ti 4gb

Memory/ RAM: G.SKILL Ripjaws (2x4) 8 gb

Power Supply: CX 430

Motherboard: Asus Z87-A

Case: Corsair Carbide Series® 300R Compact PC Gaming Case

Operating System: Windows 7 Home Premium with 64-bit Operatigg System



Computer Accessories:

Two monitors: A benq G2420 HD and a HP 2311x with a hdmi & DVA cords

Keyboard: Logitech G510s

Mouse: Steelseries Rival Optical Mouse

Headset: Logitech G230

That is a good deal for all of that. It is a decent price for the computer alone. Gaming performance should be good for most games. A few of the heavier duty titles will need the settings turned down. The GTX 750 Ti has the most impact on gaming performance. If it isn't what you like. That would be the first component to upgrade. Then the RAM. Any GPU above a GTX 1050 Ti would likely need a higher watt PSU. Due to power requirements.

Are you sure it is not an i5-4590K? I just ask since it uses a Z87 board. An i5-4590K would allow overclocking.

You did good there for the money mate.
As said the 750ti is the weak point (you can certainly game on it at medium settings max but don't expect stellar performance)

1050ti/1060/ rx570 & you'll be fairly golden for gaming

They'll all run fine on a CX 430
