    Should I buy this new PC ?

    Hey,
    So i got this offer, I can get an new PC to replace my Laptop. I want a PC and get rid of the Laptop.
    My current Laptop speccs are :
    I7-4710mq@2.5ghz
    8gb ram
    nvidia gtx 860m
    1tb hdd

    And I'm able to get this one :
    Mainboard: MSI Z87-G43
    Processor: Intel Xeon E3-1230v3 4x 3.30GHz + ARCTIC Freezer XTREME Rev. 2
    Graphic: MSI Geforce 2GB D5 X GTX770 Twin Frozr R
    RAM: G.Skill DIMM 8 GB DDR3-1600
    Drive: 256GB Samsung EVO SSD
    Power: be quiet! Pure Power CM L8 630W
    Case: Fractal Design Define R4 Black PCGH ATX

    Is the switch worth it, or should I run the Laptop as long as I can get a better offer ?
    Thanks in advance

    Edit: I'm running my Laptop with an external Monitor and Keyboard ofc.

    Can someone help me with this, please ? I'm not really good in Hardware decisions.

    Well only one thing matters:
    Do you use your laptop outside your house?
    If the answer is NO, get the PC, if the answer is YES, don't.
    Since it's better compared to your laptop

    Overall, you will notice a big performance improvement with the desktop over your laptop. I'd get it as long as it's in good condition and not too expensive. Mind letting us know the price?

    The price is somewhere around 550€

    Just to be clear, the pc specs you posted are for NEW rig not used right? Cause those parts are a few years old. Also you say replace, does that mean you will be giving your laptop + 550€ or you keep your laptop?

    No its 550 without my Laptop ofc, i want to sell the Laptop, so I can get out of that deal with like +/- 0 loose /profit. I HOPE
