Relatives kid is turning 6yo so they told me now is the time to get him a computer. He has mostly been using parents laptop for some gaming, like Team Fortress 2 and other games with similar requirements.
Basically they told me to get as low-priced build as possible that can still play TF2 and similar games(at HD1080 most likely with lowered graphics, again, most likely).
Heres what I have right now:
CPU: Pentium G630
GPU: HD 7750
Mobo: Cheapest H61 I can find
Memory: 2x 2GB HyperX blu
HDD: 500GB Seagate Barracuda Spinpoint
Optical: Random/cheapest DVD-R/RW
PSU: OCZ CoreXStream 500W (only 37€ here!!)
Case: Cooler Master Elite 310
That together is about: 387€
Things you will not have to worry about will be OS, display, mouse, keyboard, speakers etc.
Should I get some Radeon 6000 series GPU?
Should I switch to some AMD CPU? Which one?
Would some AMD CPU with integrated graphics do similar performance at 150€ pricepoint?
Any suggestions welcomed, but keep it in mind that the main goal is to cut costs!
