Buying a budget pc and i want feedback

[Dshim483]

Hello all I am looking into purchasing this Refurbished pc http/www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16834265392

I will be using it for a relatively easy to run pixelated game called realm of the mad god. Here is an example of the graphics http/imgur.com/a/xO5Rn

Here is a picture of my current specs. http/imgur.com/a/AOLl8

What i want to know is how much will my performance increase? Will I get better fps? Thats really what i want. Thanks!

For a game like you listed, I would not bother replacing the system you have now. A Dell XPS is better than that old HP even if it has a newer CPU.
If you want a faster video speed, and don't want to switch to a laptop, get a lower end card like a nVidia 740 or 750 (non-Ti), will run in your system and will be a lot faster than the laptop. Or spend the money on a 750 Ti or a 950 and then you can move it to a faster desktop in the future. Your CPU in the XPS is older, but is not that bad really, it's a quad core, and will run games about as well as a newer Intel i3.

Hi,

I dont think the PC is good for the following reasons:
1- Seems it is very old, and any maintenance you might do in the future will cost you more than the PC it self.
2- Windows Vista is kinda the worst OS Microsoft released as it is heavy, and imaging with 4GB ram.
3- Lastly it doesnt mention the GPU it has,

As for playing the game. You can play it normally as seems the specs are more than enough according to this website :http/www.game-debate.com/games/index.php?g_id=8419&game=Realm%20of%20the%20Mad%20God

Not sure if the GPU can handle it, but if it maintain the minimum specs then you are fine.

Regards,

I think you have made a mistake, vista is my current operating system and I am ugrading to the pc with the i5 and the Intel hd 4000 graphics card...
