Lenovo S30 ThinkStation - Feedback Please

[Shenzo]

Hello PG Members

I was teenager when I played PC games last time: Prince of Persia Warrior Within, NFS Underground, Call of Duty MW etc Now my kids have grown up and they are asking me for a gaming PC because they watched GTA V videos on YouTube. As a result, I searched a lot on internet and I found out workstations,Xeon based, are more powerful and still cheaper than desktop computers, i7 based. I am considering to purchase Lenovo S30 workstation.

Here are the specs I am getting for Rs.35,000/-

Lenovo S30 Thinkstatioin
Xeon E5 1620 v2 15MB
4 core 8 thread
8gb ddr3 ram
500gb hard drive
600Watt PSU 80 Plus Gold - builtin - Original from Lenovo
Rx 570 4gb 256bits ddr5

Please advise if I can purchase it or I am missing something important.

This is pretty good for the price. Just check it thoroughly before purchasing and try to get at least a week warranty. You can also install a used 120 gigs SSD for boot drive which will massively speed up your system.

Thanks for the feedback. Is there any credible supplier for used PCs/Workstations?

I thought you are already getting it from somewhere for 35k. Did I not read that right?

best value for money system, or search Dell 3600 or hp 420 with same specs as there will be 1-2K difference in price but you will be able to get parts easily available in future.
