| It's good for the price but I would go for more than that. |

Processor good. I spittaked at the clock speed of that RAM. HDD good. Mediocre GPU.
If the MoBo would let you get faster RAM, and a better GPU, it's worth it.

roseart you know nothing about PC hardware
the RAM's clockspeed has maybe 1-3 FPS difference in games and almost no difference in general performance
@OP the core 2 quad is an old CPU but it can still get around today the GPU is old but for modern games it should be enough if you can find one in the GTX 500/600 series for the same price i'd reccomend you do that though

@Jhon 1-3 frames can make a big difference if you are playing on a crap GPU.

the GTx 460 is enough that 1-3 FPS isn't a big difference |

I mailed 50 people about buying an X1.
Only 1 replied. It was a scam person.

bump, how much is this pc worth and how well will it run modern games?
because of the cheap price, i could probably convince my dad to let me get it next week. |

"i'm watching the card in it run bf4 on high settings"
I don't know much about PCs, but definitely don't let that get your hopes up, as many of your other PC parts factor in. I know from experince, after watching GTA IV gameplay on, uh what was it, a Nvidia 8600GT, and then myself not being able to play Mount & Blade: Warband on 30% graphical settings.
just sayin' |

i used to have this graphics card a couple years ago
get a more modern gpu for around the same price, like something in the 700 series. |

thanks for actual advice, liam
i had the same problem with my last computer, i was trusting the benchmarks for the cpu and gpu when i first saw this pc
another relieving factor about the pc is the case that makes it look modern and not a dinosaur |

@super buying it built off somebody, can't pick parts. if i get it i will probably upgrade to something around that in the future.
@anti both the cpu and gpu benchmarked at around the same, but depends on actual power. |
