Is this PC any good? I'm planning to use it for light programming in college and some decent gaming as well. I hate how I downloaded some games on my laptop but I'm not able to play some of them because I don't have a dedicated graphics card. My budget is $600-800 but I would like it to be as cheap as possible. I am probably going to be doing a bit of moving so an matx or mitx case would be ideal. I'm planning to try installing Sabayon for my OS because I don't want to pay for Windows and saw that Sabayon was a beginner friendly linux distro from another post (I'm not good with linux). So any suggestions or comments would be nice :D thanks!
-nVidia driver support is horrible in Linux (at least from what I've heard - I may be wrong). I'd look at getting an R7 265 if possible. It should be retailing at the same price as the 750 Ti but will have better performance.
-I'd look at getting an AMD CPU such as an FX 6300 instead of the i3 simply because it's a 6-core vs a dual core.
-Are you really in need of an SSD? It will make your boot times and overall system responsiveness better, but it's $80 you're not sinking into a better graphics card.
Thanks for the suggestions! I'll take a look at the performance of the fx6300 and the r7 265. Hmm...but I've been hearing bad driver support for ati cards on linux. I am really confused now
