So I bought a used gaming PC and need to know stuff
#2
I think Acer is a decent brand. The 7700HQ is a decent CPU for gaming. 1050 Ti isn't really a 4K video card for most games but it should run a 4K display with either a HDMI 2.1 cable or USB-C/Thundercrap cable. 2560x1440 might be a better resolution to run WOW if it struggles at 4K.

I would recommend a 1060 Ti or 1660 Ti with 4 GB VRAM as the bare minimum for 4K. If the CPU/GPU temps are under 60 C and it's still struggling, you could try Afterburner to overclock it.

I have the next step down Acer for a HTPC and occasional Handbrake conversion. AN515-51-5082 i5-7300HQ, plain 1050.
