Upgrading to a Gamer PC. Video cards etc.

[Luigi]

All done and purchased.


I forgot that the Thai computer boys would have their own backyard factories churning out lowspec gaming machines, so checked out Kaidee/OLX.

cheaper with better specs, and comes with your choice of Win 7 or 8.1, 10 games, and lots of malware and viruses preloaded.

CPU: AMD A6 - 6420K 4.2GHz
GPU Redeon 8470D
RAM :Kingston 4GB HYPER GAMING
Mainboard: Gigabyte A88X RAM4, upto 64GB
Harddisk: 1TB(1000GB) SATA III


With Win 7 and 10 games,

10,900 baht.




Just have to cover up all that shitty neon light crap.

Should be an okay introduction to low spec gaming.

Cheers all.

New PCs usually still come without SSD Drive. Make sure to include one. It is the best thing to increase speed. If not for gaming even the oldest PC gets a new lease on life and incredible speed boost using one for system drive as upgrade. For gaming better upgrade with a new PC.

BTW I was always fan of AMD and bought them because I feel there should be competition to Intel. At the moment it seems though that Intel is pulling way ahead.

Seems a good price- and a sexy case. Hope the embedded GPU is up to the games you want to play. Incidentally- which 10 games did they give you for free?

^ Yeah, I wouldn't worry about it too much at this stage. chucking a few K on a dedicated video card wouldn't be an issue if wanted.

Some of the games listed as Battlefiled 4/ call of duty / need for speed most wanted / PES 2015 / Sniper elite III / The Godfather II.


Looks like a good starter package at a cheap price, I'm sure it will get me through the hell that is Songkran then if into it can multiply the RAM and get a R7 260 video card.

He delivered it (40km) and set it up and charged an extra 300b for it.

Can't complain.

I'm sure they'll do until after Songkran, then I'll decide if I put in a SSD, R7 260, and multiply the Ram, it's only 4GB but can take 32 I think.

If it runs the first three down the left column OK, you're right for now.
Can always upgrade later- bear in mind the price of this stuff just keeps coming down.
