    Im planning to buy a PC and i want to hear advise if this setup is good enough at least run new games on low settings? This setup is given to me by a friend but im a little worries about the CPU, you guys think this is good enough? I could go for a i3 2120 but i need to sacrifice the GPU :( if that happens what GPU would u suggest?

    CPU: Intel Pentium G630
    MOBO: ASRock H61m-HGS
    RAM: G.Skill Value 4GB DDR3 1333
    HDD: WD Caviar Blue 500GB SATA3
    PSU: Antec VP450 450W
    GPU: PowerColor HD 7750


    Thanks in advance :)

    Well your CPU is a Dual core at 2.7Ghz
    Your MOB can fit 16GB of Ram if Needed

    Your Video Card is Pretty Decent.

    I would get MSI After burner for the Video card fan so you could adjust the fan Speed.

    Sounds like a good small Gaming computer at lest its up grade able in some spots.

    Looks like you can add these Cpu's

    But if you want to add more memory make sure you get windows 64bit 32bit only allows 3.5gigs of ram
    Supports 2nd Generation Intel® Core™ i7 / i5 / i3 in LGA1155 Package

    But it looks like a good one to me.

    I see, thanks, one more thing, in gaming, GPU plays a bigger role than the CPU, right?

    I would like to play diablo 3 with this setup, can u guesstimate if i can? at least on the lowest settings?
