Is this PC good enough for decent games and movies?


Hi, i am wondering if this computer is good enough for decent games like counterstrike source or 1.6 and diablo, also for downloading movies and browsing. Here are the specs, thanks for your feedback :)


Dual Core 2.5GHz Intel Celeron D on Asus P5P800-VM (LGA775) Motherboard,
upgradeable up to 3.8GHz Intel Core 2 Duo.
* 1GB DDR RAM, expandable to 4GB
* 160GB SATA2 Hard Drive (Western Digital)
* CD+/-RW Writer Drive (SONY)
* DVD Drive (Pionner)
* Floppy Dirve
* Integrated Graphics with 256MB shared RAM
* Integrated 10/100M Ethernet LAN
* Integrated Audio 6 Channel
* ATX Tower Case (Black/Silver)
* External Ports: 8x USB 2.0; VGA; Serial; 2x PS/2; Parallel;
RJ-45 (LAN); line-in, line-out, microphone
* Microsoft Windows XP Pro
* Software Included:
Office XP (Word,Excel etc), Norton AntiVirus, Nero 6.0 Express.

it goes for about 350.

There are some major issues here.

First, if it is going for 350, it is going awfully cheap. Almost too good to be true.

Second, there is no such thing as a Dual Core Intel Celeron. Intel does not make such a processor.

Third, it has onboard Intel graphics which will not be sufficient to play decent games.

It sounds to me like it might be a bit of a scam... considering they don't even know what processor is installed in it.

Yes, that is more than enough to run Counterstrike and Diablo and whatnot. You'll be fine.

you only have intergrated graphics,
no graphics card so you will find that new games will not run very well.
Also it uses 256mb of shared ram so your system will only have 768mb to run all your programs and software not a full 1 gig.

Integrated Graphics = Not good for gaming
Intel Celeron D = Not good for gaming
1gb RAM = Not good for gaming

You see the trend here. These components should play CS 1.6 fine, but you won't be able to play source or any of the Half Life 2 series games.

For $350 this isn't bad, but not worth it. You are going to need to plunk down almost $1000 for a decent comptuer from Dell that can do everything you want.

It will definitely run either of the Diablo games. CounterStrike Source I'm not so sure of but I would say probably yes, you should look up the game's system requirements to be sure. A desktop like that for $350 sounds like a fairly good deal, although it mostly depends whether you get any other hardware (monitor, keyboard, mouse, etc) in the same package. It's sure a lot better than my computer!

For ur uses of this PC it's will be Super Powerful computer it will good to run much more of games taht u mention to .

but just for knowing that ASUS P5P series have some proplems in dual Rams i've been testet it its very powerfull but have lots of momery dumps.

congratulation :)

The specs are good overall. But there are a few issues with that system if you are looking to play games. First, it has an integrated graphics card instead of a separate AGP/PCI-E card. If you are going to play games you need a separate graphics card. Second, 1GB of memory is pretty minimal. I would upgrade to at least 2GB.
