That is a good gaming computer.
Your processor may not be able to run very high-end games at the best graphics settings, but maybe medium-high settings.
But overall, I say yes.

I want a new laptop for my birthday...?
Q. So, I have a Dell laptop, and I absolutely hate it! It's at very least 3 years old, I have found things that said they were last updated in 2010... It's not the best, and can be very laggy sometimes on things like Minecraft. It overheats quite a lot and sucks in hair like it's nothing. I've wanted to use my laptop for CoD, Medal of Honor, and some racing games, but I fear it will lag to much. My birthday is in July...
Also, I have a Bamboo Tablet... My laptop does not let my tablet driver or w/e run unless i have it plugged in when I start it up, making it impossible to do wireless now. The side of it also broke, partially from it being old, and partially from dropping it.
Also, the button to click is broken, so I often find myself tapping the trackpad to click, which can get frustrating because I have to press so hard...
This laptop is also refurbished, and my dad thinks he can just constantly keep fixing this one when it does not want to work.
I would prefer a screen resolution of 1366x768 because I will use my USB to put things on my new laptop like backgrounds, so I'd like to have them fit instead of finding identical or new ones for my laptop...
I would prefer it to be under $500, but it CANNOT go over $700...
Thank you.
Also, I'm asking because I am not computer savy. I would end up picking out a worse laptop, lol...
Oh, another problem with my laptop is it doesn't fucking let me change the brightness. :| It broke a long time ago...

Buying advice
Apple makes a good quality laptop. The problem comes when it requires service or minor upgrades. It is near impossible to do anything with them. They even glue the battery and hard drive down so you can not change it. They solder the ram to the logic board so you can not increase it. They lock up most of the software so your stuck with what they approve.
Lenovo has serious stand behind their product problems. They bought IBM PC division and proceeded to drive the quality of the system into the ground. Their customer service is well below par. They even makes Dell customer service look good. The last and final thing to remember about them is they are a Chinese Government own company. It is up to you if you want to trust them.
Toshiba, Panasonic, Sony should be avoided because of their heavy modification of Windows and the drivers. If you remove some of the bloat they install, you can cripple the system.
Acer, Gateway, and eMachines should be avoided period. Low end system that are driving the race to the bottom.
Dell once made a good system and fell from grace. They are now struggling to regain their place in the market. Customer service is one of many problems with this company.
Alienware are glorified Dells and are more name then product. Priced extremely high for what you get. They do perform but you can get the same for less by looking around, just not packaged to be eye candy to the gamers.
Samsung has a history of using cheap parts in critical areas. Capacitors has been one area Samsung has a known history of going cheap, causing units to fail early. For that reason I would avoid them.
ASUS and HP do not modify Windows as bad as the other manufacturers. They have excellent build quality. They might add a lot of bloat but they also makes it easy to get rid of it.
Ultrabooks are the higher end of Wintel laptops but they have some of the same concerns as Apple. They make it next to impossible to change any hardware in them. Service of them will have to be done by the manufacturers. With most of them, you can not change your own battery or hard drive. They are designed to catch your eye but they are not any more special then other laptops except for the fact that they are slim or thin. Your paying for it being thin and slim. For the money your going to spend on it you can buy a much better laptop with more power.
Tablets are just toys to me. They can not handle the work load like Laptops and Desktops and do not have the storage capacity you will end up needing.
Hybrids are the worse of the worse. The flip or detachable touch screens are just a disaster waiting to happen.
Never buy an All In One. They are far worst then laptops of any kind to service and they have a higher failure rate. My experience with them are limited because the few I worked on made me think they were designed in such a way as it would take a blow torch and a jack hammer just to disassemble them.
Choose wisely.
