Is this Processor good for gaming?

[OblivE]

Processor Intel(R) Core(TM)2 Duo CPU E8400 @ 3.00GHz, 2992 Mhz, 2 Core(s), 2 Logical Processor(s) is what i use, would this be ANY good running DirectX11 on things like DCS World? im unable to play things like War Thunder, but thats normal, as this is a DELL and almost all DELLs suck at first. Any sudgestions if not? (about 80$-?)

That cpu is quite old, so I would say no. Graphics card matters too though.

are you building new or trying to upgrade an older pc. if it your older pc i would start a replacement funds. see if there a non profit you can donate the old pc for a tax write off. there a point where it not worth trying to upgrade older pc because it cost more then newer parts and still be slow. your pc is one of them.

no i am not building this i just so happened to buy this only weeks ago and i have NO idea what im doing with it, honestly my other one was better but ive already loaned it to another person. I only ask this because i had recently downloaded a game called DCS World, as im shure you know what that is. Anyhow, i cannot find out how to check my graphics card and what it is, i really dont have alot of info on it, but maybe enough to get some answers? I know my system stuff i a bit old, but i still have several other things to counter with this old thing. If youd like to use Skype and discuss this instead about next week id be willing to tell you then? I do plan to record this game and im thinking about a more lets say "modern" recorder. I did use ScreenCast OMaticV2 but its only hoarding my CPU more and more and i cannot run much with it. Just lets not veer too far off the original question, "COULD IT RUN IT?" again i will give you my Skype username to discuss this there if you want.
