[QUOTE="Danny Boy, post: 609051, member: 14104"] It's quite a bargain you got! With a little extra work, you can have a worthy gaming pc. Your biggest constraint will be the "integrated graphics" a.k.a. on-board gpu. Sure, it will work, but you'll have to run games on low quality settings. If you do get a separate graphics card, you'll also have a bit more memory (RAM) available, since the on-board gpu makes use of system memory. A separate graphics card has got it's own memory installed. The bigger GPU you get, the better, depending on your budget. Lastly, it would be wise to try and upgrade the RAM to at least 4gb. This would make a major difference in performance. Although this is an older cpu, it's short of a monster, even by today's standards. Regarding games, other forumites will have to assist you with that. [/QUOTE]
