There's an ad i found for a gaming set up. Here is what the ad says:
Specs:
Motherboard: Asus M5A99X EVO R2.0
CPU: AMD FX 8350 Eight Core Processor 4.0ghz(Overclocked 5.0ghz)
Graphics Card: NVIDIA Geforce GT 730
Ram: 8.00GB Dual-Channel DDR3 @ 577MHz
Hard Drive: 500GB Seagate ST3500418AS
Solid State Drive (SSD): 120GB KINGSTON SUV400S37120G (SSD)
Comes with a DVD Drive

Other Items Included:
Monitor: Acer Ebmid 27" 1080p (K272HL)
KeyBoard: Logitech G410
Mouse: Logitech G502
Speakers: Logitech Surround Sound (5 Speakers + Bass)
Mouse Pad: Magic Eagle Red Long Mouse Pad



I wanted to know if ALL of that was worth if for 1200 CAD (957.54 USD). I contacted the person and they said that without the monitor and speakers (Since i already have those) he would go 1000 CAD (797.95 USD)
What do you guys think? Please be honest :).

Sorry but that is not a gaming system and it's massively overpriced. The GT 730 is a very weak gpu not good at all for gaming. It's not worth anything near $800. The system is worth maybe $200 and monitor maybe $100. Also since the PSU is not listed there's a good chance it's a junker.

Don't be sorry I'd rather people be honest then lie. Anyway thanks, I have no idea what any of those random numbers are lol! Do you have any idea what would be a good build? for around 700-800 USD?

Is that 700-800 for just the tower or do you also need other parts like a mouse, keyboard, monitor and os included?

It doesnt worth half that price. You can have a new computera lot faster than this one for cheaper! CPU is not very bad but still outdated, GPU worth nothing (not a gaming GPU) and RAM is sloooooow.

I woulnt take it if they gave it to me!!! For a gamer, there is nothing to do with this computer... :-(
