I'm about to get this computer from Craigslist because I don't want to spend lots of money on a computer. I found one and I need to know if these can play games on it like borderlands 2, minecraft,slender and maybe bf3. Anyways good enough to play on. I need to know if these are good specs: I have a Hp Workstation With Dual Intel XENON processors running at 3.4ghz each with hyper-thread technology, so your looking at 4 threads running 3.4ghz. The Case locks with barrel lock. It has 4gb of ram installed and has room for up to EIGHT Drives Its running Windows Xp at the moment. If you throw a Decent graphics card in there and Win 7 this will be a Gaming monster. I set the price at 200 Because it could use a bigger hard drive and the case has some wear and tear.

How much you willing to spend? to run games like BF3 you will need a good graphics card atleast. 8gb RAM is plenty and a processor of 2 and above.

I got an ADVENT DT211 for 600 which is pretty decent. Google it.

if you have the cash dude, i would rather build one yourself. Or atleast buy the parts and get a small pc company to build it for you, they're cheaper and tend to be better for you're money. go here and fill out a form and see what Rootbeer can come u for you


- Hope i helped!
