Is This A Good Gaming Computer?

Question

ATHLON 64 5200 (DUAL CORE 2.7GHZ)

GIGABYTE AM2 MOTHERBOARD

3GB PNY 800MHZ RAM

XFX GEFORCE 8600GT

VISTA ULTIMATE 32 BIT

Answer 1

thats a hella sick computer!

Answer 2

This all depends on what you play. Some games are just not graphically intense such as WoW and starcraft for example. If you want to play a game such as Crysis or perhaps COD4 maxed out... no luck for you man. Although you can play both of those games with dumbed down settings. In fact you could play cod4 with pretty nice frame rates with the right settings.

Also to all the idiots below. This is not a high powered machine. This is a low budget computer.

My comp isn't even considered high end:

My comp:

Q6600@4ghz water cooled

p5e x38

asus 4850 volt modded 800/1000

2gb ddr2 crucial ballistix

xp 32bit

Answer 3

Depends on the games you are looking forward to play... Graphics card would be ok, but the CPU is weak (if you like AMD, go for a Phenom, they aren't all that much more expensive, but they sure do perform better)

Also, if you are going for a 32 bit setup, go for Win XP instead of Vista... you will FEEL the difference, son. =)

Cheers.
