Advise for a basic 1650 gaming pc
I am looking to build a basic gaming computer. This isn't a pc that is just going to help me get through the parts shortage, this is going to be my gaming pc that I hope will last say at least 5 years. It is difficult researching a low end gaming pc as most reviewers or those more familiar with pc parts don't like the 1650 range. But money is the great dictator in life and gaming.
My current pc is 7 years old has an i3-4160 CPU @ 3.60GHz and has the NVIDIA GeForce GTX 750 gaming card. My main games are the Sims specifically Sims 3 but Sims 2 and Sims 4 also get played a bit. As well as FSX.
The graphics card can handle the Sims texture is on high but object texture is low and everything else is a mix of low and medium. FSX plays similar. Though I'd like to play more recent games, I'd like to at least be able to play my Sims games with better graphics, as well as improve FSX.
Are these parts any good?
1) INTEL CORE I3 10300 - 3.7 GHZ
2) MSI B460M-A PRO MAINBOARD
3) MSI GTX 1650 Ventus XS
Core/Memory
Boost Clock / Memory Speed
1740 MHz / 8 Gbps
4GB GDDR5
DisplayPort x 1(v1.4a)
HDMI x 1(Supports 4K@60Hz as specified in HDMI 2.0b)
DL-DVI-D x 1
I also want to know if the above graphics card is the more basic/lower end of the 1650 range? And if I could put a bit more money into a graphics card would it be better to wait for stock to come back in?
I also would like to know how good the ventus part is? I've read some comments that it is noisy and that isn't going suit another family member. Should it be a deciding factor?
