    Absolutely not!

    That graphics card was a budget card when it was new... 3 years ago! There isn't much weaker you could get from a new system...

    Hi

    Could someone please tell me if this set up http://www.dell.com/us/en/dfh/desktops/dimen_e521/pd.aspx?refid=dimen_e521&cs=22&s=dfh is ok for playing pc games at high details?

    Dell, Compustore, etc, etc, etc only sell office/home type PC's, although they do at times offer 'gaming' PC's they are generally not very good and are extremely overpriced.

    If you search on ebay for a gaming PC, then you will be generally tricked into buying a piece of **** (unless you know your stuff)

    Go to adverts.ie, at least there, there is a chance you can get a PC actually capable of playing games at a decent price second hand.

    Otherwise if you want to buy new, then you go to the 'upgrading & building' section of this boards and give your budget and ask what you can get for it.
