Looking to buy a PC on Facebook marketplace but not sure if it is worth it and if I should build my own PC.

Post

I’ve never built a pc ever in my life and I have zero knowledge on PC specs and stuff like that but I’ve been wanting to buy one to be able to play some more modern games like monster hunter wilds without my current potato pc screaming at me. I saw someone was selling a used PC on facebook marketplace for $549 and was wondering if this was worth it for the price since it does seem cheaper than building one rn but I’m not too sure. I’m not really looking for anything super powerful just good enough for me to play some modern games smoothly while having nice graphics. This was the information on the PC that was in the post: - Premium Acer Predator Case w/ multi lighting schemes AND headset holder - Windows 11 Home - i5 11400K CPU - JONSBO AirTower CPU Cooler **New** - Acer Gaming Motherboard - OLOY 16GB DDR4 RAM - Nvidia GTX 1080 GPU w/ custom backplate - Sabrent 1 TB NvMe M.2 SSD **New** - Bluetooth - WiFi - 500W 80+ Power Supply Are these parts good enough for modern gaming use or should I build my own PC? If it’s good enough to buy what are some tips for when I go about purchasing it to make sure I won’t be scammed?
