Hey there UNit_01, make sure to introduce yourself here: Official Welcome/Introduction Thread

The link you included unfortunately is not a PC it's a CPU (Central Processing Unit) only.

So that means it doesn't not come with anything else such as graphics card, RAM, motherboard.

Even if you want to buy a CPU, that one is a bit high for a Ebay product. I would have gone for a E8400 or a Q6600 from a store nearby.

Remembering that he still needs all the other components with it.
I don't think that he would have the money if he thought that was
a complete PC for $274.95.
