I know you guys are gonna jump down my throat and say I could build something better and cheaper right here in the States—but hey, if some guy in Germany is happy with it, why shouldn't I be?!
Since I’m a total amateur, I wanted to ask the experts: can I put together a rig that matches these specs? Thanks. 🤔

It’s not garbage, per se, but it's definitely outdated. Running a hundred miles on this stuff would be a disaster.

Total garbage for gaming... and honestly, a bit overpriced too.

Man, just look at those graphs 😁 and honestly, the processor isn't any better either. You’re better off staying far away from this one.

That power supply is really intended for office PCs. Could you let us know exactly what your specs are and if you have a budget limit of around $700?

Yeah. Could probably use a better GPU—no clue about the CPU—and a 22-inch monitor would do the job fine enough.
