     @mergan ye will be fine but ye should change that PSU eventually (700W max should really be fine, like a Corsair one) and migrate to SSDs :acat_bite:
     at a later date you can switch to a Ryzen-based system so that you get better performance and better compatibility for CPU instructions on games and Windows stuff, that'll mean changing motherboard and RAM do DDR4 3200MHz or 3600MHz (or DDR5 depending on the CPU and when though)
     RAM amounts are fine however

     @helene @mergan I would argue EVGA PSU's are better built than Corsair, at least that's my experience from several years of working at a distributor with RMA's. You preferably, if your budget can handle it, would want a Seasonic PSU since the quality is outstanding compared to other brands, most good PSU's from other brands are just Seasonic rebrands.
     
     And if you're going with corsair, stay away from the older CX line if you find them in stock, or the older RM line (especially the RM one).

     @helene @mergan other than that, the PC linked is literally what i have. (Basically, at least performance wise).
     
     Oddly enough, still performing rather well considering the age. Especially if you ditch ? indows for something else. But AAA titles from the past 4 years are really hurting. (Still good for indie games tho).
