Gaming PC funds..

So I finished completing my desktop PC project last week adding the final components to my system and now I’m after a gaming PC seeing as my current system is only PCI and running on P4 (2.8Ghz) 4GB 6400 DDR2 320 Seagate HDD and 512Mb GeForce 8400GS..
This is the specs of my new system which is going to be my new prized posession replacing the old PC in my living room allowing the other to subside in my bedroom..

Do you think this will do the job from a maxed-out high quality gaming perspective?
Any help here would be appreciated
Answer #1
Yes, it should run all of the latest games on high settings. But, I would suggest getting 2 more GB’s of RAM to make it 6GB. The 250GB hard drive is also a little small for some people, maybe not you though.
Overall, it’s a great PC.
Answer #2
Yes but
RaidMAX Black X-Force 728 Gaming Case -500W PSU
Included PSU’s are of poor quality, cheap and nasty go for a better one…
You could always get better if you build your self.

lol exactly, you will get random power offs or resets or possibly starting a fire (blown fuses, if fuses are not rubber sheathed).

Actually 1TB or greater is more realistic these days.
Maybe his budget is limited, see his parts.
