Gamer PC - good enough?

[golfmanusa]

My son (13) is big xBox (decent player - Halo, Call to Duty) and plays Mindcraft on my PC - I have attached the specs for a slightly used store model gamer that I can get for a lot less than a brand new one, meaning I am cheap. I read on board here that $500 was minimun to get in on PC --- I can get this one for 1/2 but as graphics of games continue to demand more, I wonder if using this unit for now as base makes good sense.
