A week in the game at 10 minutes a week might be fast for me but slow for you. How many career seasons do you play?

I'd also get cheaper motherboards, unless you are really going for hardcore overclocking they aren't worth the money then and even then its debatable. You will probably find you can get a WIn10 licence cheaper than that as well (check amazon for example). 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thanx Firstly, none of those images actually says what model/speed processor it has. Secondly, I wouldn't go for it. It's a 2nd generation i5 processor, so regardless of the specific model, it's going to be approx 8 years old, and the graphics card is poor anyway. Even if it ran FM, I'd be dubious on how long it'd last without a hardware failure that puts you back to having to either get a new PC or trying to buy compatible parts to fix it.

Secondly, I wouldn't go for it. It's a 2nd generation i5 processor, so regardless of the specific model, it's going to be approx 8 years old, and the graphics card is poor anyway. Even if it ran FM, I'd be dubious on how long it'd last without a hardware failure that puts you back to having to either get a new PC or trying to buy compatible parts to fix it. OK thanx you. Do you have any recommendations I can have a look at? I'm not very good at picking pcs. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
