Hey community,
So I believe I have enough spare parts lying around to build a computer out of after Black Friday, since I am going to get a new, smaller case for my main computer (NZXT Vulcan). I have a couple of spare parts lying around, including a bran new 9600GSO I bought as a gift and never gifted it. I am going to try to name some of the specs of the computer (I am actually at the Mazda dealership getting my car serviced, so bear with me here.
Asus board out of an old HP, with an AMD Athlon 64 X2 (not sure the model, I think 4400+)
4 gigs of RAM
9600GSO 512MB (G94 chip)
Colermaster extreme series 500W PSU
I guess I'm wondering if the computer would have at least some power to play at least basic games (Civ 4, L4D, LoL, etc). I would like to leave this computer at my father's house so I don't have to cart my rig back and forth. I know the 960GSO is not the most powerful card ever (hey, it was $16), would it at lest run some sort of games?
Thanks,
-Gunner
