Is this computer good enough to play some games like starcraft 2 and dragon age origins. i will mainly be using this for everyday work but i want to be able to play some games.



Answer
Looks like a really good deal. You might try a graphics card with it. Basic computer packages don't usually come with them. If you want to play startcraft II you would really need a newer and high performance card. Nvidia does the best. I think the 2.7 Ghz processor in that computer if fast enough and it has the memory. but the graphics performance would not handle starcraft, I have heard it is the most demanding.

This guy says the Geforce 460 is the best

Your store has it for $200

Though I think this Geforce 520 would do

And Ebay has it for even less at $114

But you could purchase any high performance say 128-258bit, with 1 GB and it should be able to handle starcraft. I don't see your basic computer there handling starcraft I know it requires a high performance graphics card, I have read complaints about the need for one.

PS2 directly to computer screen?




Smarty


Is it possible to connect and play the PS2 on my computer screen?

I have an old computer screen (the thick, big ones) and i want to know if it is possible to just connect and play.

If yes, what cables do I need?

Please include prices and don't use too many "technical" terms.

Thank you!!!



Answer
Yes, there are adapters for that:
