How much is a gtx 1650 with an i7 870 pre built worth?
I'm going to pick one up locally tomorrow for $225, worth it?
You're viewing a single thread.
The real question is, what do you want to do with it?
I'm only buying it for Elite Dangerous to be honest but games like Helldivers 2 and anything else really would be an added plus of course.
Helldivers 2 isn’t even going to run on this machine (due to a lack of AVX instructions)
For Elite: Dangerous that should be fine. And it's a decent price
But CPU, RAM, and Motherboard would likely need upgrades before you could get to modern games like Helldivers. To be fair that CPU/Mobo/RAM released in 2009. GPU is a mid-range from 2019 so it should be okay for mid/low graphics in 1080p.
Huge topic.
Like I said, for just Elite: Dangerous I think you'll be fine at mid graphics.
For upgrades check out https://www.logicalincrements.com/ in the price category you're comfortable in.
I'm partial to AMD for CPU since upgrade paths are much more modular.
Alright thanks!
