With all that mining rig madness, it is quite difficult to build a mid range gaming build due to the complete lack of GPUs like RTX 3060 Ti and RTX 3070. So we decided to see what is available and build a budget gaming PC with parts you can buy today.
Specs:
CPU: i3-10100F on Amazon: http://stedigaming.com/to/10100F
MB: ASROCK H410M-HVS - HDV is a bit better and still cheap: http://stedigaming.com/to/H410MHDV

SSD: Crucial BX500 480GB: http://stedigaming.com/to/BX500
RAM: http://stedigaming.com/to/CrucialBallistixRGB

If you want to upgrade your system with new NVME PCIe SSD, but you don't have M.2 port on your motherboard, you have to get one of these. With a wide variety of adapters available, we decided to get a few models and test them out.

I never thought Age of Empires is a demanding game until we started testing the Athlon 3000G. At the end of our Age of Empires II: Definitive Edition benchmark we got the worst message to be given.
"To play multiplayer ranked games, your machine needs to score 1000 or above
Below requirement, your score was 971.2
You cannot yet play ranked multiplayer games. Try reducing Resolution or lowering some graphical settings and run the test again."
Settings are Low, resolution 1080p, which is quite important as you need the biggest view you can get :) So off to overclocking we are. With a score of 1025.6, we barely met the "requirements".

We have an ancient i5-2400 PC here so we plugged in a GeForce GTX 1070 to test the performance in Apex Legends. Still playable, but far from perfect.
Up next same PC on LOW settings. Coming soon...
Apex Legends - HIGH - On GeForce GTX 1070 & i5-2400
