I'm sure you get a ton of these questions.. But I would love some help... Thanks

I am going to purchase a used Dell XPS 410 with 1.86 c2d, 4gbs of ram and a nvdidia 8600gts graphics card. My questions are two... (Vista Ultimate btw)

1) Will Team Fortress 2 run decently well on it?

2) How much would you think a used box like this should cost? With just a standard harddrive ( i think 120)

You could always OC the processor up a bit and be able to play games on higher settings. cole_793

I don't think you'll be able to access the bios to overclock the cpu with a dell, even with an XPS, but for $400 with the monitor its a great deal. Plus if you want to play games at highter setting a graphcs card upgrade to someting like an 8800gt for about $150 will make much more difference than overclocking the CPU.

You should be able to run TF2 and other games, but it'll have to be at med-low settings. I wouldn't pay more then $600 for that.gamerwiz09

Wrong TF2 will run absolutely fine maxed out. I ran it nearly maxed on at 1680 x 1050 when i had to RMA my motherboardon this one .... i was using an Athlon 3500+ 1 gig of DDR400 ram and a 7600GT.

Altho just curiuos for the price why not upgrade the GPU a bit to a 8800Gt or 9600GT or even a 4850 (bit more money more performance) and the CPU to a e2160 then OC it
