Question 1

Is this computer able to have a 250 ssd?

Accepted Answer

There is 2x places you can fit a 5.25" drive, but not anything for 2.5". Technically a 5.25" adapter would work. The motherboard is an HP Sunflower that does have a M2 PCIe SSD Slot though. Power Supply is 310 watt so nothing too big power wise on the drives.

Question 2

Is this computers mother board able to allow a i9 cpu 8th gen? I know the power supply would need to be uped with a few other components.

Accepted Answer

Hello Aaron,

This computer does not use any kind of Intel CPU so you will have to also get a compatible motherboard if you were looking to use an 8th gen i9 CPU.  You will need to find a system that already comes with an 8th Gen CPU but you may want to check the BIOS is up to date on the board since it might not support the 9th Gen CPU out of the box.  Hope this helps!

Question 3

So, I have a quick question. Can this run games like Rising storm 2 and Insurgency: Sandstorm? (Any settings on those games are fine for me since I don't care about how detailed it looks, unless it reminds me of a 3d contra) I currently have an all-in-one type computer and I was thinking of upgrading on the cheaper side.

Accepted Answer

hey a fellow RS2 Player! (I play arma 3 not Insurgency) but this pc wont even come close to getting stable frames in RS2, it probably wont even load in. I have a i7 8700k and rtx 2060 super in my build, and RS2 averages 90-120 frames, (and this is a pc that i OC to get 240+ frames in fortnite). So if you are looking to play those types of games, you are going to need a VERY beefy pc. Hope this helps! See ya in the huey!
