Which would you choose?

Okay so two weeks back I asked for a build with my budget, put my hands up, I forgot to book mark it and I've searched through 50 pages trying to find it, I can't but in the mean time I've done some browsing and come across these budget builds;

G4-OR AMD SIX CORE GAMING PC COMPUTER 2TB HDD 8GB MEM NVIDIA GT640 2GB GRAPHICS
http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/ws/eBayISAPI.d...m=281061092668

AMD FX 8 Core 4.2Ghz 2tb HDD 16gb 1600mhz USB3 ATI 6450 1gb Syclone Desktop PC
http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/ws/eBayISAPI.d...m=140911892870


AMD FX 8 Core 4.2Ghz 2tb HDD 16gb 1600mhz USB3 GT610 2gb Nept B Windows 8 PC
http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/ws/eBayISAPI.d...m=140920489669

Now, Im favoring the last one atm, then the 2nd one, although Im slightly concerned about cooling and how loud it will be when its running, so which would you say is better?

Or would you not get one from one of these ebay companies? if so why not?

I've also tried a few different websites where you input specs and they build it for you, even with 0 accessories, monitors etc, the cost still comes greater, even some specs are lower than the above,

Lastly, Im also sending the three links to a friend who deals with I.C.T as his business to see if he can beat the prices.

Cheers

- All of those have worthless piece of shit graphics card you need to replace first week if you want to play anything more complicated than Windows Solitaire.
- First two computers have no Windows included in price.
- Middle computer has the most retarded case I've ever seen.


You got great replies in your original thread, get back there and forget these turds you found from ebay.

Sorry should of mentioned, the OS isn't a problem really, can get that separate cheap enough

Yea, that case is bleh, but scroll down and they have about 9 different available though

Bigger problem is that all three of those have shit graphics card you need to get rid of immediately. It's £50 wasted money on all of those setups.

Just for the sake of the argument, say if I went for one of those systems, what kind of ££ am I looking at to replace it, with a half decent one, Im not a huge gamer but I do game socially on wow etc during summer holidays, college breaks etc,

Also, mostly chose those set ups because of the memory and price discount, so I could use it as a starting point with the guy I've emailed

In your original post you wanted desktop "high powered for gaming" which requires actually gaming-worthy graphics card.

To put things like RAM and graphics card prices into perspective, 16GB RAM costs around £80 and 8GB half of it so that's £40 spent on extra RAM you don't really need (8GB is enough for anything you listed in your original post).

Graphics cards in the three computers you linked are in £25 - £70 range. Spending £20 more (less than the difference between 8GB and 16GB RAM you don't need) will give you on average twice the framerate compared between best card (in the first computer) vs lowest end self-picked card.

So yeah, basically if you pick any of the three computers you're looking into trashing £25-70 graphics card on first day for a £100 card minimum if you want to play anything on 1920x1080 monitor at acceptable speed. Cards in all three computers listed are meant for facebook and porn, not for any kind of gaming above farmville.
