Ok a friend of a friend is going to sell me a computer cheap. He says it's built for gaming. He says it has a 2 terabyte Harddrive. 8 gb of ram. i7 core Processor and a Guerrilla motherboard.

You forgot to mention the graphics card which is the most important part.
Also the Guerrilla motherboard is a socket 1366 which is fairly old, how much is he asking for this?

Like $70.

I asked about the video card and thats when he told me about the guerrilla motherboard. He said it's a gaming motherboard.

every component in your pc interacts with the motherboard, you dont buy a junk one, you still have to get one that isnt junk

The gaming part is just a PR stunt, it will not give any increased performance in games.

That is very cheap, I would take it even if it is old.

Either way it will probably out perform my current computer that I bought from RAC 3 years ago.

The CPU alone is worth more than $70 so whatever is in there, roll it.
