I bought a used Dell prebuilt on Ebay for 299.99 with free shipping, did I do good?
Specs:
i5-3470
1TB HDD with Windows 7 64bit Pro
6GB of Ram (ill upgrade when I receive PC)
I then bought on NewEgg an XFX R9 380 4GB and a EVGA 500w PSU for around $220

Assuming you actually got what you paid for, should be pretty good.

>are sexy af

I was recommending it for better airflow, not looks.

Prebuilt OEM cases tend to be even worse for dust and airflow than regular cases, I've had my fair share.

It's a good deal if it all works well but to be completely honest you could have had a better Haslel i5, new mobo, and new case and 8 GB new RAM for about $50 more.

Case looks better than most shit gayming cases and the dell mobo probably won't fit in a standard case anyway. Just keep it.

good job anon

try to get 8GB ram
or if you like more, always good to have just a little more.
at this rate it

doesn't much too much fuss over single channel or duel channel just find out if your motherboard supports the brand you want even if it reads a old/new model of the same brand it should be good.

Idk how many slots it has for ram. Honestly I hope it has 4, because I already found a kit for this mobo of 8gb for 40 bucks so 8+6 equalsssss 14gb

in the future look for dell precisions. they tend to be cheaper and have better airflow and more power, but are ugly as shit
