Gaming on a 10-year-old BEAST of a PC

Building & testing a £2000 gaming PC from 2013 to see how it performed in gaming over the last decade.

The £220 PC I bought from CEX last year was a time capsule of what a better-than-average gaming PC looked like in 2012. In this video, I've upgraded the CEX machine to a more premium 2013 spec, using a 6-core i7 and a pair of R9 290X 4GB graphics cards in Crossfire, to see whether paying an extra £1000 and waiting an extra year would have paid off in the long run.
