H,
thought I'd try and get some wisdom from the revered Tom's Hardware community.
I'm hopefully after some advice on a system that I've come across on e-bay. You'll have to excuse my complete and utter ignorance concerning anything computer related-apart from,of course, the on switch.
I'm very restricted financially so I was wondering whether this was a capable build to play Guild Wars 2.
I can see a graphic card upgrade is necessary; but apart from that will it run the game at very high settings or am I missing something glaringly obvious.
Thanks in advance, it will be much appreciated.
Here we go:
HP XW8200 Workstation/Tower PC:
TWIN (2x) Intel Xeon 3.6Ghz - 64-Bit - Hyper-Threaded
8 GB RAM - DDR2 ECC RAM
1TB SATA2 Hard Drive
On-Board SATA RAID Controller - Raid 0 & 1
Brand New XFX ATI HD5450 1GB GDDR3 Gaming Graphics Card
- (2GB with Hyper-Memory!!)
Brand New DVD-RW Optical Drive
Genuine Windows 7 Professional (64-Bit)
