Budget PC has this budget PC on sale! Not very bad deal if you are after a budget gaming PC.

  Probably better off with one of the deals from Techfast. (eg: https://www.ebay.com.au/itm/Ryzen-3-2200G-GTX-1060-6GB-120GB…). Ryzen3 220g is slightly faster than i5-6500. 1060 is slightly faster than 970. Smaller SSD, but a 250GB SSD is only about $50 now. 8GB of ram vs 16GB is the main drawback. The advantage is that you get a new PC, not a refurb one from 2015.

  IMO this is not a good deal. This system would be worth about $500, and be a good deal closer to $400.

  There have recently been very good deals on 1060/580 with intel 8400 or amd 2600 for around $700-$800, they will blow this out of the water in every metric. Even the cases will be more modern than this relic.

  If you just need a functioning PC for browsing/office, wait for another of the Dell optiplex deals for ~$240.

      I feel ya, I built my computer with similar specs maybe 6~7 years ago now.

      We budget now :(

        Crazy thing is it's still not worth it to upgrade. A ryzen 2600 only gets about 8% more single-threaded performance than the 3570k, and that's at stock. My chip does 4.2ghz…

  Now it not the time to buy a pc, AMD will have a major announcement at CES 2019 with the CEO Lisa Su presenting.

  Even if AdoredTV rumour is half right. There will be performance uplift and more cores for dollar.

  • 

    mortyestmorty on 13/12/2018 - 02:30

    How much of a price/performance difference do you think there'll be between a 2700X and a 3700X?

    • 

      ChickenAdobo on 13/12/2018 - 03:15

      4 more cores and at least 10% IPC increase depending on work load. Maybe 40 AUD cheaper due to AMD superior chiplet binning process. I could be wrong, we will find out next month.

        I'm actually looking to build my first PC but the 3000 series probably won't be for sale until like March/April. Tough decision time.
