Is this good for gaming?

Ive played Aion, Guild Wars. Borderlands, Star Wars the old Republic with this processor. Most of the time I also have a browser window open and music playing. I've noticed it can be slow but I'm still running Windows XP pro so Im capped at 3gigs of RAM, when I upgrade to windows 7 I am confident that the load times will quicken up significantly.

If you have the right mobo/case combination it is a good cpu. But if you are having to buy a whole set up the newer i5s and i7s are better and cheaper to make a full gaming pc.

It is good for gaming coupled with good RAM and GPU. I've had mine since 2011. Overclocked to 4.0Ghz with an EVGA FTW3 mother board. It has some limitations, but for the price it's at now, it's a great budget pick. I've seen some on ebay for around $60-$90. Hope this helps!

The short answer is no. Mine came with 750 meg of ram and I had to upgrade that just to run the programs for my job. Its good for word processing and basic web surfing but I don't think it would be good for games.

Not at all.This is a terrible computer.I bought it upgraded the ram and hard drive and it barely ran.Heated super fast and could not run any game I threw at it.Buy a PC laptop if you're looking for a gaming laptop.

it is OK for mild gaming. if you want an APU that is Good for gaming, get either the newer Kaverti A8-7600 as a minimum, or any Richland or Kaverti A10 (ex. A10-6800k).

Honestly, I can say that it isn't spectacular for gaming. I tried to play the new Far Cry on it and it was lagging so bad that I couldn't play it. It can play games like Skyrim and Fallout. But then again those games aren't that new.

I would say it's decent for gaming. I have loaded Star Wars:Empire at War and C&C Generals loaded on mine and thet play perfectly. Display runs at 1920x1080 without any problems. My only complaints is that the fan will run at full speed when playing and sounds like a jet engine

yes, it will run games, but it's not going to give extreme details or all the sparkles of a gaming rig. it's more of a multi-media/work station type machine. i upgraded the ram to 8gig, and it is a sweet machine!

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.

Yes it is great for gaming, i got it with the rampage IV extreme, the rampage IV Black would be also great. Those are the best x79 mb out there so far.

Yes. It's ok for gaming, although the dense layout makes it easy to hit the wrong keys. I usually don't have much trouble though.

This laptop is certainly not intended for gaming although gaming is still possible. Experience may vary from one title to the next although in most situations it won't be sufficient enough. To answer your question, no it wouldn't be a good gaming computer though for everything else it should suffice.

I have not tried, but I would not recommend it for gaming. I played some older games on it, and they had some lag ...

No. It handles internet fine and MMORPGs like WoW and Aura Kingdom were alright. However, I would not recommend this laptop for gaming.

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 would say not...it is a good basic laptop, at least for me, but I would say very unlikely to handle gaming

I would not recommend it for gaming. When mine was working the response time was too slow to be used for quick input. My Sharkk mouse
