Usually it's pretty safe to buy used, I haven't bought many things myself but I've sold quite a few parts and all were good and noone's had issues with them. One of the guys I sold to said he buys used parts all the time and builds them into pcs to resell, never had any issues.
3 of my friends all built rigs out of used parts too and have had no issues.


oh okay thanks for tip might buy used part if it can help to build something nice


damn mean to edit sorry for double post

can i know why dual core .. i know i3 is new generation and all

but is the 6-core that rapture proposed me is less godd than the dual core?
and for Gfx card i dont think i will need 4gb for now guess 2 would be more than enought the game i play the most is Diablo2 and Oldschool runesscape might try other one too but can wait if it dont run them


yeah that 6 core is very old now, the individual core's performance is quite lackluster compared to the new i3's. The new i3's also have hyperthreading, which kinda makes them function as a 4 core.

Yes I think so. Try to look around for an i5 3570k or something, they should go for around 150 CAD used. You'll need a Z77 motherboard with it and some DDR3 RAM

Yeah just get whatever you can afford for those other parts. Unless its broken theres no problem with a used case, power supply uou might want to get new but if you find a high quality oower supply that's not too old for a good deal, grab it.

Here's a list of what psu's are good and which are trash: http://www.tomshardware.com/forum/id-2547993/psu-tier-list.html
