Question about a specific Desktop computer

[Supes03]

The specs of the $737.42 computer is

CPU: INTEL I5 Ivy Bridge
M/B: 1155 Ivy Bridge support
RAM: 8G DDRIII
HDD: 500G SATA3
VGA: GEFORCE GTX 650 1G

Will i be able to play the latest games with this computer?

I would want a desktop computer that has good graphics as the PS4. When i asked a guy who works at a computer store that I wanted that kind graphics for my desktop, he said I should get a desktop worth $1,169.09. Would a desktop with graphics good as the PS4 be that expensive?

Yes it would be.
You should change the Geforce GTX 650 to a minimum 720

Thanks for your reply. Anyway how good will the graphics be then? I want good graphics.
Would it be:
Good
Average
Below Average
or just bad?

You do realize the 650 and gt720 run about the same? They are both low end video cards.

What games are you wanting to play? That will determine what video card you will need.

Most of them are games that are coming out this year. For example, Killing Floor 2, Evolve, Day Z SA(released in 2014), Star Wars Battlefront, TC's Division, and etc.

I can't find anything on tc's division but Evolve's recommended specs for a video card is gtx 760 or an R9 280. The 280 will cost around $200 alone. Get a quad core processor with 8gb of ram and a 600 watt power supply.

The socket 1155 is already an outdated product. You should look at the socket 1150. The newest one out for intel is the 2011-v3 but its kinda pricey yet.

Thanks for replying. You would have to pay $1000 at least for the desktop that contains most of the things that you are talking about right?
All I wanted was to buy a desktop that has the same quality of graphics as the PS4 maybe a little bit better. I mean i wouldn't mind getting something better if it was cheaper.

 

[johnb35]

Yeah, you are looking at close to $1000 for an Intel build. An AMD build might be below $900

So not over $1000 right, ok. An AMD must be lower quality. Well, thank you for your help.

 

[johnb35]

Let me configure you an AMD and an Intel build. Give me a few minutes.

Of course you would have to add back in the mail in rebates. You can get any case, I just picked the one that I use all the time for client builds.

Wow, thanks for taking the time to do this. You really made things a lot more easier for me.
