Not worth it. Graphics card is bad, CPU is alright on a budget like that.

if you plan on just playing cod... its good enough. cpu and card aren't as bad as above people say, will play majority of todays games fairly easy.

can easily go out and get a new graphics card for it if its starts struggling with newer games.

It doesn't come with an operating system so you have to buy your own one like $120+.

apex, It's a $30 graphics card it might pull off 125 frames in CoD4 but any new games he will suffer.

well if cod4 is all he plans on playing (or cs:s) than its good enough, and if he ever wants to move onto other games, it wouldn't cost much for another graphics card, i bought my HD6870 for $170 and it plays everything i throw at it

Just after a solid gaming pc, that can run all the new games.. & hopefully new games to come.. i have windows 7 ultimate already, so not worried about a pc with an operating system
also, my mate will build the pc he said, & he suggested buying all the parts separate as its cheaper..
so may as well do that lol

You're kidding yourself at that price range.

Also apex if you think a 5450 "isn't bad" you should go read up on what you're talking about. It wouldn't pull 60 frames in cod4 - it will run HD video and that's about ******* it. Shame the bury button only works once.

Here's a fair cheap build that isn't to bad, pretty much i just built the cheapest decent system i could.
This would run every game including cod4 with 250fps and whatever else you need.

*very limited with such a low budget.
