LCorn11 0 Report post Posted August 6, 2014 Very new to sim racing. Looking at a rig I can run on 1 32 inch Samsung. Really dont want to spend this much but i was told it will do the iRacing job very nicely. What do y'all think? http://www.ebay.com/itm/iBuyPower-Gamer-Power-AM649FX-Desktop-Black-Free-Shipping-New-/301266871392?pt=Desktop_PCs&hash=item4624e7a460 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Paradox 92 Report post Posted August 6, 2014 Power supply is only 300 watt. I would recommend a 600 or higher. Otherwise thats enough to get you started. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Joe Berkett 70 Report post Posted August 6, 2014 No that will be fine. It's not the highest end of parts, I have a 4670k, 16GBs RAM, GTX 760 and a new ROG Z97 Mothorboard all running off a 750 and that's too much. I could run it of a 650 easy Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
APEKS 159 Report post Posted August 6, 2014 I would say the GPU is very weak for the asking price and it's the 1Gb model which is low even for 1 screen Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
LCorn11 0 Report post Posted August 6, 2014 Thanks guys. For starting out however i went with a different tower. I think this will do the job for iRacing and one tv screen. Tell me what you guys think. http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16883229285 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
motiondave 88 Report post Posted August 6, 2014 That ebay thing? Gamer desktop? you got to be kidding me. My 10 year old runs a GTX460 in his. The newegg, maybe a bigger graphics card or lower resolution in game. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Joe Berkett 70 Report post Posted August 7, 2014 Get the Newegg one for sure Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
LCorn11 0 Report post Posted August 8, 2014 I bought the Newegg one. Just wondering what you guys thought about it. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Joe Berkett 70 Report post Posted August 8, 2014 That will do the job, pretty well I might add Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
kiwihigh 27 Report post Posted August 8, 2014 Wow that ebay one is outdated! you made a far better choice on that Newegg one. Save your pennies and get a better graphics card when you can and you will be set! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
