    What fps will my first custom pc build run at?

    I am building my first pc, and it’s more of a test than a real pc I will game on. Here are the specs I am looking to put together.
    Lenovo M91p Motherboard
    NVIDIA GT 1030
    [ATTACH type=“full” alt=“00000_2Bl4JrU8ykW_05k08J_1200x900.jpg”]6804[/ATTACH]
    From Craigslist (don’t have yet, I don’t know if this is trustworthy)

    Intel Core i5-2500 (already have)
    500 GB SSD: Amazon.com (on its way)
    How much fps do you think it can run each of these at?
    Valorant
    CS:GO
    Fortnite
    Warzone
    I am still considering about the gt 1030 though, I don’t know if that seller is going to scam me or not, he says the price is 65$ is the plastic wrap real, is the price at all reasonable?

    that my friend is the 64 million dollar question.
    simply - you won’t know until you know.
    all i can guess is it will be on the low side rather than high, purely based on the process and motherboard.
    other factors come into play as well; memory, web speed.
    improving FPS is the Holy Grail of gaming - many have tried, many have spent big dollars - many have been disappointed.

    the GT1030 is an older gen card, new they sell for around $120 (www.umart.com.au) so $65 is very cheap.
    judging by all the parts on the floor in his shot, he must be into flogging off PC bit and pieces.
    as to trustworthiness - i cannot say.

      okay thank you, I’m still sus about this dude, but all I know is that he sells this 20$ cheaper than amazon, I really do think it could be possible if he changed his mind last minute, but that is very unlikely. I will say that it is possible this is 3rd handed and he bought it from someone for even cheaper

        Bit of an older thread but take a look;
