Is the PC sufficient for games?

I wanted to get a pc to play games (Minecraft, Csgo…). Unfortunately I do not know so that's why I wanted to ask if the PC is enough.

Intel i5 3470S, Nvidia GTX 1050Ti 4GB, 8GB Ram, 500GB HDD

That's enough for e-sports titles. Latest games on low-middle graphics settings. The processor is no longer the newest.
But Minecraft and CS: GO are a breeze for the calculator.

It is important to install an SSD, which is often underestimated.

Rather middle - partly on high.

Ob

Yes is enough for csgo and mc; have to expect that you have to upgrade in 1-2 years

Consider the bottleneck through the 4-core with the spongy IPC;
Price / performance ratio absolute garbage.
Also, the RAM memory type was not mentioned (well, that does not matter so much with Intel.)

Thank you for your prompt reply

And how it works you can play almost everything!

In games with many rendering tasks, he will probably create no more high settings.
But also depends on the games;

ArmA 3 will not be fun.

Yes, that's enough.

But you should not buy it. What should it cost?

What is missing in any case is an SSD. If you want to get used for the 200 euro already better equipment.

Have a budget of 300 euro

Then I would put together a PC from used components.

For about 130 euro you get a case with power supply, motherboard and i5 2400K, then for another 70 euro you get a GTX 770. If you then still should be missing an SSD, you can even buy new.

Then you have a bit more power and the CPU is good overclockable.

For Minecraft and CS: GO the PC is enough. I would install a SSD but still, so an HDD as a system disk is incredibly slow.

Okay thank you very much

No problem.
