For me this is a steal price but i just wanna make sure since it took me a long time to save up this money and i might regret it.

570 is decent. Looks like it trades blows with a GTX 1060 3gb according to benchmarks. I think they were selling on eBay for about 300 or so. So you could do that if you want a different card though.

But i think i can OC the ram to 2400. He has a silverstone 550 PSU watts

It is definitely worth it. That GPU along with the memory together would run you about $600 or more in this horrible market. Upgrade wise when memory prices drop I would see about getting better memory. But immediately I would ensure the PSU in the system is a quality one and upgrade ASAP if it isn't. Otherwise an SSD would be a good near term upgrade.

Yea i was worried about the ram being 2133mhz only. Is the GPU good? I was planning to get a gtx 1060 6gb instead but then my friend offered me this. I forgot the model of his PSU but it is bronze model. I'm gonna be buying an SSD soon. all of the PC still has 1 year warranty btw

No... And what's this friend's contact again?



Yeah, that's a good steal. You get a decent GPU, good CPU, nice RAM, and good other stuff. You get a SSD, and you're set. If it comes with Windows, that's even better. Definitely, pick it up.
