Hey everyone i recently picked up a cheap desktop for 60$. Looking to building for as cheap as possible.

It has the following:
P8H61-M LX Plus
i3-2130
456GB HD
400Watt PSU

4gb Ram currently going to upgrade, someone in town is selling some "Corsair Vengeance CMZ8GX3M2A1600C9B" he wants $60 OBO. Would this RAM work? I know the manual says it only supports up to 1333.

Also what are some recommendations on a graphics card i should buy? Id like to be able to play PUBG decently. I will also just be playing at 1080. Price range is up to $200 Canadian. If there are multiple cards at different price ranges that i should consider. Let me know and ill do some research into them.

The only thing i want this thing for is to play PUBG.

This is my first desktop.

Save yourself the money and forget about playing PUBG on that system. I've got a decent i5 and 16GB RAM, it only just runs the game....in the future it may be better optimized, but at this stage it's a really demanding game requiring a powerful CPU. It also require a decent graphics card, but by lowering settings, a card like the GTX 1050ti would be fine for 1080p.

first, you will need to upgrade the cpu
the best that motherboard supports is the i7 3770k, i5 3570k, and i5 3470
make sure the bios is up to date before swapping one in


second you want at least 8gb of ram, yes the CORSAIR Vengeance will work


and third at least a gtx 1050 ti for medium settings at 1080p with decent fps


PUBG is a pain to run
