So I found this pc for sale on craigslist and I was wondering if this would be a suitable tradeoff instead of making a new pc. My new build is going to be an i5 3470k a z77 extreme 4 and a gtx 760. Or should I go with this build? Im planning to play bf4 and the dayz standalone

I have seen 2500K's as low as 150$ or so used

PASS. Stick to your build.

Looks like everything is retail price unless I'm missing something. Is this thing new or used? I'd rather have a single HD 7970/7950 over two low-end cards Crossfired together.

Yeah I guess I opened my eyes and realized this isnt that great at all

Yeah, PASS!!! Those prices are not a sale deal at all! And Justin is 100%, get a single beefy card instead of crossfire lower end 1gb cards.

Seems like you could get a newer gen processor for $225. No one wants to pay 1200 for a pc that is ~2 generations old.
