Hey guys,
I am new to the forum and I was just wondering if this computer is any good?
The price is really low so i have my doubts, ideally I need it to be able to run adobe photoshop comfortably and programs such Cinema 4D and Dreamweaver and adobe flash 9 ( so pretty much the whole of adobe CS4). It would also be an advantage if the computer is able to run games such as: football manager 2011, the sims 2/sims 3 and age of empires 3.

The only specs i can get on the computer are: Case
Case Type: ATX
Colour: Black
Dimensions:
H: 45.5cm
D: 43cm
W: 18.5cm
Audio Jack
Mic Jack
USB x 2

Processor:
Intel Core 2 Duo running at 2.00GHz

Memory:
4GB DDR2 800Mhz

Hard Drive:
200GB 7200rpm

Wireless Connection:
Internal Wireless Adapter 802.11g

Operating System:
Windows 7 Ultimate 64bit

Disc Drive:
Combo drive

Power Supply:
500watts

Mother Board:
1 x PS/2 keyboard port
1 x PS/2 mouse port
1 x VGA connector
1 x Audio jacks
4 x USB 2.0 ports
1 x RJ45 LAN port
2 x PCI
1 x PCI-E
Onboard Graphics Intel Engine


(I'ts on ebay but i am not sure if i can post links)

Also the price of it is £120 which makes me doubtful (UK by the way)


Thanks

Mark :)

The computer is ok for surfing the net, and might be ok for some light photo shop work, but you won't really be bale to play any games with onboard graphics

You will be able to run Adobe products 4 series with out fault, you might not be able to have the best graphics and overall performance. Pay attention to the specifications of your Video card and make sure you have over 256MB of memory, 3D and Pixel shading over 2.0

You will probably also need over 2.4GHz if your using P4 Processors,
1.8GHz and Higher if your using a Dual core.

Can You Run It Run this scanner and type "Sims 3" it will tell you what you need to upgrade.
