i think you got ripped off :(

seriously my comp is better than that and i would've sold for cheaper and it sucks too :?

you want to first upgrade your ram then you should be able to run most modern games low/med settings and get playable fps

I think I'm gonna have to agree and say that you got ripped off. I'd say upgrade the RAM and then get yourself a new graphic card.

I'm going to have to go with everyone else in saying that's not a good deal, at all. 1 GB of RAM is low and additionally it is DDR instead of DDR2 or DDR3. 80 GB of storage for a computer is very low in my opinion unless it is a solid state drive. Finally the 7600 is outdated (8000 and 9000 series have been out now for awhile), and is only a mid range card.

I predict this is a serious joke thread. The PC is a super gaming pc, that plays games like Call of Duty(the original), and Worms Armageddon beautifully.

When it comes down to gaming PCs, the TC has some seriously low standards.

Yeah but if the components cost that much, how much do you think the motheboard would have cost? Dude, you got ripped off. I'm not trying to be a jerk but I dont see the "super" in that computer

Yeah, you got ripped off. I just built my own rig for that much, and here's my specs. Antec case (Don't know what model, but you can't go wrong with Antec) 4GB DDR2 Corsair RAM 500GB Western Digital HD LiteOn DVD drive with LightScribe Nvidia Geforce 7600GT video card (Same as yours but I didn't buy it. I borrowed it from a friend.) Sorry, man. That computer's not going to be able to run anything. Check www.canyourunit.com
