Hello all, first time posting so please be gentle.
I recently picked this up from someone who got it for Black Friday. https://www.bestbuy.com/site/cyberpowerpc-gamer-ultra-desktop-amd-ryzen-5-1400-8gb-memory-amd-radeon-rx-580-1tb-hard-drive-black/5833100.p?skuId=5833100. It's a CyberPower prebuilt with an MSI Armor RX 580 4gb installed. I have found out the following through research, the box is still unopened:
Case: Phanteks P400
MoBo: Asus b350M Prime Plus
GPU: RX 580 4gb
CPU: Ryzen 5 1400
RAM: 8gb (not sure which brand)
HD: 1TB 7200rpm, (not sure which brand)
Windows 10
Now, I have two laptops that I use for my personal daily use. I will only be using this for World of Warcraft. That's it. No other game, at all. I mainly do solo content or Mythic+, but I have been playing since the very beginning of vanilla and have never played with max settings. I'm thinking the GPU won't be able to handle max settings due to texture loss (read that somewhere...), so I'm wondering if I need to find an 8gb card for max settings.
Also, Should I have an SSD for Windows and WoW? Since I'll only be using this for WoW, I wouldn't imagine it needing to be that large of an SSD.
Should I upgrade the RAM to 16gb?
Any other thoughts?
Thanks so much for your time. -T-
ps: I would have built one myself, but I got this for $580 which I considered a pretty solid deal.
pps: I have a new HP Omen monitor with FreeSync so need to stay away from the nVidia cards.
