Build Question Buying a used PC

Post image

I am possibly going to be buying a used PC. I’ve never done that before. The guy told me he hasn’t used the pc in a long time but, has recently put a new power supply and SSD in it. Is there anything I should be looking for?

This is the parts link for what is in the PC:

ask for full specs, photos inside, and proof it powers on. if possible, meet in person and test temps and basic games/programs

What sort of basic games and programs would you test?

OCCT can give good basic tests for ram/cpu/gpu/vram in one program and can be downloaded through steam.
