    Why would he give that pc up for a PS4???

    Considering you can do a hell of a lot more on a PC and furthermore those specs can run games at 1080p at 60fps whereas the same games would be 30fps on a PS4.

    So then trading the PS4 for this PC would be a good deal?

    You can play some games at 1080p/60fps, other games at 1080p/average 45 fps with that pc.

    the psu alone is worth half a ps4, what are you waiting for? worst case scenario you can sell that pc and get a new ps4 + all top games this year

    Make sure you test it out first. Something must be wrong with it.

    Sadly but that FX 8350 is somewhat on pair with i7 920 you mentioned. Still its a capable CPU paired with right GPU (280X is still a good card).

    Test the PC, run few games, if everything is fine trade it and forget about console gaming.

    I'd swap a PS4 for it in a second (If I got the PC)

    Your PC is worth a decent amount, at least $500+ (USD). Your case and power supply alone are worth good money.

    If you want the PS4, that person should sweeten the deal with some money.

    Is this just going to be a spare pc? That 8350 is going to look like it's standing still next that 4770k..

    I just thought it would be a good deal as I am not really a big gamer, I barley play the PS4 so I thought I would get more use out of this system, plus I am in canada and our prices are higher up here.

    Selling the individual parts of that system would already net you more than the PS4.

    I'd definitely do it, even if the 8350 is pretty crap its worth it.

    Who bought the this PC for you?
    Looks like you didn't realize the value $ you have inside your case!
    Keep the PC, it's so much more flexible and not to mention more powerful.

    And slap the other guy for trying to rip you off :whip:

    I'm still running the 8350, OCd to 4.8, and I have no issues gaming at 1080p with a 980, mostly maxed settings other than AA sometimes needing lowered
