Buying this pc need advice

[Dominatia]

After searching i have decided on buying this gaming PC

http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/ULTRA-FAS...t=UK_Computing_DesktopPCs&hash=item2c79fba63f

Please look at it and give me pros/cons, what i want from this system is to play runescape, LoL, minecraft, etc on max or near to max setting with zero lag while also browsing youtube, facebook and other websites in the background. Will that system be able to do that?

I also need advice how to install windows 7 onto this with complete steps if i end up getting it as im new to this and have no idea.

NEVER buy a prebuilt pc. Build it your own. It'll be cheaper and you know ALL the parts going in there.

Didn't really help me man, i know that but i havn't got time, need pros/cons on this system and if it will do what i require

They didnt provide enough details in the listing for me to give you a pros and cons.

You need to know what kind of PSU its running, what kind of ram,

For the price of the AMD 6600k you can get a better performing 6300FX, I have no clue how they market the GPU as "Latest model" the 8570D is outdated.

And frankly, that motherboard sucks. It's a budget motherboard with only 2 dimm's.

The PSU is probably the only computer part that BRAND matters. I believe that PSU is an ALPINE 500w and its HORRIBLE.

If the psu is a alpine 500 its not even that bad, actually theyre rather good and very quiet, did you have a bad experience or something?

Im not sure if it will run properly at MAX graphics, if i were you i would add a dedicated grahpics card. And you really want to get an ssd for your OS.

For installing the OS you just put the disc in the dvd reader and it will run you trough the process.

I don't think you should experience any problems with this PC. It should be able to run those games you listed just fine. If you run into problems/ programs not running smoothly remember to update your drivers.

i would swap the 8570d because in the long run it will become obsolete get a AMD R9 270x all the games you wanna play will run great with that and its more up to date.

Seeing how the 270x is just about as expensive as the whole build, I am guessing the OP has a budget. Also you can't just simply swap out the 8570d as it's integrated into the APU.

Not sure if it works on AMD systems but normally it should still detect a dedicated gpu and use it over the integrated.
