Baka Posted August 18, 2015 Share Posted August 18, 2015 $110. That's cheaper than a lower end casual computer meant for nothing more than using the internet. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Haikara Posted August 18, 2015 Share Posted August 18, 2015 Those parts are out of date by now, but just a new case and power supply can cost you $110 bucks. I'd say it's a good deal if you just need something to browse the internet and play old games. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bob.Loblaw Posted August 18, 2015 Share Posted August 18, 2015 Yeah, that won't really do anything other than play games from many years ago, but if you need a dirt cheap computer this isn't bad. If you want a dirt cheap gaming computer go quad core and find a decent graphics card. Maybe $130 for machine and $70 for card? You could probably play more recent games on low or medium (playable).

deadendpath Posted August 18, 2015 Author Share Posted August 18, 2015 All I'm really into is Counter-Strike (have been since 1999.) and sometimes the odd game of LoL. I figure this setup should run 1.6 with absolute ease and play CSGO decently.. Or am I wrong?

I thought support for it was discontinued? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
-AJ- Posted August 19, 2015 Share Posted August 19, 2015 Super cheap, and probably worth at least that $110, but won't probably play any new high-end games. You might be able to get away with Minecraft or un-modded Skyrim, but a lot of newer games won't work too well. LoL is super easy to run; I doubt this would have trouble with that. I'm not sure how CS:GO's graphics are, so I can't say much on that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I thought support for it was discontinued? Quite a few public servers in NA still around, and a ton in Europe. Competitive CS 1.6 (leagues/LANs) is dead though. It's a shame. CS is legendary. At least CSGO is somewhat decent. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I know a few guys that run it on 5 year old MacBook pros. For 110$ it's a decent deal. Really can't go wrong. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

D-Money Posted August 19, 2015 Share Posted August 19, 2015 Advice from a once sworn PC user. Buy a Mac. Less headaches, more production. The OP is trying to decide whether to spend $110 to play decade+ old PC games. I'm going to go out on a limb and state that a) he can't afford a Mac, and "production" is not really a concern.
