Salaam friends,

I am interested in buying a mid end gaming rig capable of playing all new games on medium settings 1280*720 min resolution(masseffect3,deat space 3,The witcher 2,Ghost recon future soldier,MW3,BF3)..I am interested in buying a i5 first gen PC specs are as under


  • Intel Core i5 750 (clock 2.6 GHz) 8M cache
  • 3GB RAM
  • 320 GB Harddisk (Seagate)
  • MSI P55 motherboard
  • Asus casing (black)
  • Silverstone 500W power supply
  • NVIDIA GEForce GTS 250 Graphic card(PCI x16 port)
  • VGA RAM 512 MB
  • Samsung superwrite master

Price demand is 36k..Is the price suitable for above specs?
and what do experience PG members have to say about this rig?Is it sufficient for another 4 years or so?

Is a PG member selling it? Also for 36k we could suggest buying brand new parts......

price is not bad but at olx there is alot of wrong deals so i suggest you to either purchase a new pc or purchase from pakgamers market place.also try to purchase sandy bridge or ivy bridge processor and forget old core i series. and if you are looking for future proof you must have to choose lga1155 plateform because lga1156 is deadend plateform with no future (even lga1155 will have no future :p)

please post complete specs of your current PC, also these parts are old (1156 is old) and GTS 250 is a crap card. So sell your current PC add that money to this 36k and you could get yourself something decent

    Just finished Diablo 4 season in hurry to play Fallout 4 but gamepass released another banger in the form of Star Wars on April 25th. Gamepass is a steal man.

    Is it just me or people lately seem to defend every bad game design decision made by the devs and try to give bullshit reasons for that? Or perhaps it's because I'm on reddit and discord :ROFLMAO:
