Hi,

I was wondering if anyone could let me know whether this computer will run smoothly on Windows 7.

I read somewhere that the MSI 770 motherboard needs a gfx card to run. However, this machine is for office use, so I was hoping to get away without the gfx card. Is this possible?

One more question - I assumed that the Phenom II X2 is a 64 bit processor, is this the case? I am wanting to run Windows 7 64


Mobo:
MSI 770-C45 AMD 770 AM3 DDR3 Support 8 channel Blu-ray Audio GB LAN ATX

CPU:
AMD Phenom II X2 545 3GHz Socket AM3 6MB Cache

RAM:
Corsair 2GB Kit (2x1GB) DDR2 533MHz/PC2-4300 Memory Non-ECC Unbuffered

HDD:
Western Digital WD6400AADS 750GB Hard Drive SATAII 32MB Cache
 
No onboard video means you will have no video.

That board requires a graphics card, otherwise, no place to plug in a monitor...
 
Oh wow I nearly made a schoolboy error. Thanks for that.

Hmm now I have to find a PCI-E gfx card that will not send me over budget. Which means £8 or less. Back to the drawing board...

Apart from that though - if I put a low end gfx card in there will it run ok do you think? No bottlenecks or dodgyness?
