I'm considering buying a used PC for $350. The specs include a 2060 Super graphics card, a Ryzen 5 5600x processor, and 32GB of DDR4 RAM. The storage isn't great, but I have a 2TB drive from my laptop to use. The most demanding games I plan to play are Elden Ring and Genshin Impact. Do you think this is a good deal? Will I be able to play these games at 1440p with these specs?

The RAM alone is almost worth half the asking price, which is a great deal! Just make sure you factor in the GPU and CPU performance when planning your gaming experience.
I say go for it! If you want to boost performance later, consider selling the 2060 and getting a 9060XT or a 5060Ti. With those upgrades, you could have a solid PC for years to come.
Honestly, the price seems pretty fair for the specs. Running games at 1440p will really depend on the graphics settings you choose and how well the games are optimized. If you manage your expectations with frame rates, you should be able to handle it alright!
Yeah, but DDR3 pricing is pretty low right now, and even older CPUs can still hold their own if optimized well.
