I'm looking to purchase a new computer for gaming. I haven't been able to play a new game in almost 2 years due in part to not understanding alot of the new computer specs. dual core, multi core, it's all greek to me. I don't have thousands to spend on a top of the line gaming machine so I'm going to have to go the old fashioned way and buy something and slowly upgrade it. I've got my eye on this particular machine and am curious as to how well it will run games such as warhammer online, cod4, the witcher and the like. I know it's not going to run any of them out of the box I am going to have to change at least the graphics card. My question really is this machine worth it and could i play these games with slight upgrades?
