Yeah that is a good PC to support many games even newer games, setting them to Medium to low Graphics that is. You may be able to play them at the full resolution
 
My Core 2 Duo (E8400) clocked at 4.0 Ghz and running a 560 Ti 448 core plays any game I have (Crysis included) at max settings. I'm sure this one will be fine with Max to Medium.
 

good point there, core 2 quads are outdated by a long shot, although good enough for most games. If its a new system you should be looking at a core i5 CPU, unless your getting a particularly good deal on the core 2 quad. Core 2 quads are roughly equivalent to AMD's Phenom II x4 line.
 
Must be overclocked. The only quad core Intel CPU at 3.4Ghz is the i7 2600(k). At 1280 x 1024 most games will be CPU bound.
 
thanks for all the help im not really a CPU guy so if you know of any better suggestions i have £1000 to spend i will be using the computer to capture my xbox and upload to youtube livestreaming playing minecraft ETC...
