Second-hand PC

[mrjohn]

 

 

My wife’s nephew is selling a desktop.

I’ve been thinking of buying a new one for some time. He has obviously used is for “gaming”

I do not play computer games.

 

 

At 10,000 Bht is it a good buy?

Or should I invest in a new machine?

 

Any advice gratefully received.

These are the specifications.

Give him 5k and take it.

He can remove the graphic card and sell it separately.

Check whether it is W11 compatible.

 

Not that it really matters because you can bypass the incompatibilities.

And then he'll need to buy another graphics card since the processer is an -F SKU...

I don’t know enough about graphics cards, I always buy onboard, but the 1050ti seems to be purchased for 3K now. Hardly worth removing and selling.

 

The mobo is 1500B new. 
 

I don’t think it’s worth 10K, is it?

Well, there are a few extras like expensive case, lots of fans and expensive power unit.

Ram 2000

Processor 3000

Graphics Card 3000

1tb ssd 1000

Motherboard 2000

 

Does it come with a monitor?

 

I think it is worth 10k, offer 8-9

 

Don't offer 5k it is lowballing

Already reduced from 12. Like I said, there are some extras.

That pc spec is a liitle bit old, at 10000 baht for that is too much, as someone else stated 5000 would be about right.

 

The I5-9400F is fully compatible with win 11, no modifications needed and it can easily be updated to win 11 if the win 10 license is genuine.

 

I5-9400F - This CPU comes without integrated graphics (the F denotes this) so a dedicated graphics card is needed, such as the 1050Ti.

I think this means it hasn’t got onboard graphics or graphics integrated into the CPU, so if you remove and sell the graphics card as suggested, you will need to replace it with something.

Ok, I have to admit I didn't look at that little details. 

Thanks for pointing that out.

As someone else has already pointed out, the CPU doesn't have integrated graphics so you require a discrete (add on) graphics card.

The monitor listed in that specs Pic is a MSI g24c4. On lazada a new one sells for right around 4k.

It seems to have the wrong ram installed (1064MHz)? The motherboard website says..DDR4 2666/2400/2133 https://www.asus.com/motherboards-components/motherboards/prime/prime-h310m-e-r2-0/
