is it good for gaming?

Depends on what you mean by "gaming"? This is a netbook with a 1.0 Ghz cpu with Turbo to 1.3 Ghz for two cores. It has the equivalent of a Radeon HD 6200 series video card. It is very good for internet browsing, e-mail, typical office tasks and very good for watching streaming video. If the game is internet-based and doesn't require a high-powered cpu and video card then it should be perfectly adequate.

Hi. Really, this is a good computer. Yes, is decent for gaming purpose but....only for gaming?, I use my g7 for scientific and engineering purposes, because this is a powerful system. The games inside this one, specially mah jong, are very nice. Mah jong has a relaxant sounds, so you put on earphones and enjoy the sounds while you are playing. pavilion g7-2220us is a decent laptop not only for gaming, but other purposes. Buy it and enjoy!

It's OK for gaming. My boy has been using it to play games on his ChromeBook.

This is NOT a good product for any use. They are going take it out of the market. I am not gamer, so I can not advice you. Good luck!

I'm not a gamer nor am I a PC expert by any means but I don't think this laptop is something I would consider a "gaming" PC. My opinion is that it's for everyday use for activities like personal finance, MS Office, internet browsing and jus general use. I'm sure it can run games but not games requiring high graphics capabilities etc.

I don't use it for gaming but, it does maintain a constant streaming of video without any interruptions. Its speed remains constant at the 300Mbps on the 5gz band. I would think it would work reasonably well for gaming.

I play world of Warcraft on it, works good but not as good as my Alienware.

yes its good for gaming, the k indicates that it can be overclocked, also it allows for pci express 3.0 connections for your graphics cardsMost motherboards work well with it, I've personally used two asus x79 boards and can recommend both, the sabertooth x79 and rampage 4 extreme

It has the power to run the games fine and on high graphics settings. But if you're intending to use it for long periods of time, 3-4 hours settings, I'd go for something else. The problem I've been having with this model is the power port becomes overly heated and has become disconnected from the motherboard. I've had to repair it twice.

Yeah. I use it exclusively for gaming. Works pretty good. What do I play? BF3, 4, Hawken, CoDs, Crysis 2, 3 and some UT3. For something that's 20 bucks, it aint bad. If it breaks, I'll just go buy another one. I use a Logitech EX110 for work purposes. What's my game stuff? Intel i7 3770 cpu, Asus P8z77-V LK motherboard, WD 2.5 Velociraptor HDD, XFX HD7950 gpu, G.Skill 16gb 19200 ram, Corsair RM750 psu, Corsair H100i liquid cooler.

I have not used it for gaming at all but it is a bit slower than my regular laptop. It would probably need a fast internet connection to be good for gaming. Plus, the screen being so small might also make gaming difficult. Hope that helps!

I play video games.. so far so good with this. Of course you cant expect the highest setting for high-spec game such as Assassin's Creed : Unity, as it just provide about 20 fps. I think its a good for a budget pc setup :)

I would not use it for gaming. A more powerful CPU with a more powerful graphics card is required for gaming. It is, however, excellent for day-to-day computing needs.

I don't use the computer for gaming but, as I said in my review, this is a good computer for home computing. I'm pleased with the speed for basic household applications and internet, but I think you would be disappointed in it as a gaming machine.

Yes. We actually bought it for our son who is a gamer, but its fast with good memory so it should be able to keep . He loves it.
