What This PC Can Do
This PC is perfect if you're looking for an affordable way to get into gaming. Whether you're a teen wanting to play online with friends or an adult looking for a machine that can handle work during the day and games at night, this one does both.

You’ll be able to:

  • Play popular games in full HD (1080p) smoothly
  • Use it for school or office work with ease
  • Store lots of games and files with the 1TB SSD
  • Connect wirelessly or with a LAN cable

Suitable for Games Like

  • Fortnite
  • Minecraft
  • Valorant
  • Apex Legends
  • Call of Duty (Medium settings)
  • Diablo IV
  • Forza Horizon 5
  • Roblox
  • The Sims 4

What It Can’t Do As Well

  • Can’t run most games in 4K
  • May struggle with ultra settings in very demanding titles
  • Not ideal for editing large video projects or heavy 3D design

Can It Be Used for Streaming?
Kind of, but it’s limited.

It doesn’t have a GPU with strong hardware encoding (like NVENC on higher RTX cards), so while light streaming (like to YouTube or Twitch at low resolutions) is possible, performance may drop in fast-paced games.

Is It VR Ready?
Not really.

The RTX 3050 6GB is an entry-level card, and most VR systems recommend higher specs for smooth performance. You might run basic VR games, but this PC isn’t built with VR in mind.

So Who’s This For?

  • Parents shopping for a reliable, budget-friendly gaming PC for their kids
  • Adults who want a solid starter gaming and general-use PC
  • Gamers who play casually
  • Anyone who wants a plug-and-play system that works out of the box with Windows 11 and Game Pass included
