I first bought this 3050 SFF for £40.
So far I've:
Installed a spare 500GB HDD - Free
Got 16GB DDR4 - £35
Got a 256GB NVME - £10
Sold the 8GB DDR4 it came with - £17
Bought a Radeon WX-4100 - £48
Installed a front intake fan I had spare - Free

Total came out to £116, Which I think is like 150 USD? Either way I'm very happy with how it turned out for the price. Chances are I'll sell the 4100 and move up to a 6400, but those cards are priced too high for me so maybe that won't be for a while. It runs really well for what I paid, managing to push 60FPS in overwatch, and 120 in roblox.

I found an optiplex 3050 SFF for £40 on ebay, only catch was that it had no storage. It was squeaky clean with no issues besides that, and the specs are as follows
-Core i5 7500
-8GB DDR4-2400
-500GB Seagate hard drive that i tossed in from a dead PS4
It runs and works. The first thing I want to do is get an NVME SSD so that I can actually enjoy using it, also maybe a WiFi card since right now I'm piggybacking of my main PC's WiFi connection. Any suggestions on what I should do with it? Right now I'm considering making it into a light gaming machine for my living room so that I can play games on my TV but I'm open to suggestions.
