Hey, i'm debating on getting a pc that can compete with the ps4.
Now for convience sake i won't be building my pc i'll be buying it pre-made from an online retailer.
my budget is 440$ and i'm contemplating on these 2.

Now my question is.
The i3 is a better processor than the Fx-8310
Yet the graphics card r7 240 is better than the Intel hd 4400.
Which pc should i get and why?

Now the i3 comes with the hd 4400 integrated, does that mean i can buy the pc. then attach a gtx 700Ti along or i have to take the hd 4400 out.

Me personally, if I had to pick.. I'd keep with my PS4 and not purchase either of these machines.

However, to give you an answer, I guess I'd go with the i5/windows 10 machine as its more bang for buck in a sense.

Also, yeah you can definitely install an aftermarket pcie GPU like a 750TI, only restrictions typically would be case size and PSU (neither of which would be an issue in that chassis with a 750TI)

EDIT: Upon closer look, the chassis on the i5 machine looks too small for a standard GPU...That holding true, I'd then say the AMD machine!
 
For that price range I'd also stick with the PS4

If you can up to 500-600 with 8320/8350 or i5 and a decent GPU like a 960 then that's the decent entrypoint for PC gaming me thinks.

Yeah, if you can boost the budget just a little bit, as beers says, you step into a much better machine.
