Okay so I've got a friend that needs some help.
Some games he wants to play are:
-Prototype
- Left 4 Dead 2
- Generals Command and Conquer
- Call of Duty Black Ops 2.

He asked for some specifications about the desktop so I would like you opinions keeping in mind he needs something affordable..
What do you guys think about

Windows 7
6 GB RAM
Intel i3 core / Pentium G2030 3.0 GHz??
He doesn't really about Graphic Cards so Radeon HD 4850 X2 ???

Can anyone please recommend anything?
Or can you build anything with 500~600 dollars?
Thanks :)

Would this run any newer games or is this just a very basic desktop?



 


with the radeon 250x it should play most new games at medium
