Computer Stuff Recommendations
Hello guys. Could anyone tell me if this computer is good for playing games? So it has:
Processor: 2.4 Ghz Intel Core 2 Duo
Memory: 2 GB 1067 MHz DDR3
Graphics: NVIDIA GeForce 320M 256 MB
Also when I get a new computer what would you recommend if I had around $1000 dollars budget. I would like it not to be really big or heavy, laptop. I mostly want it to make nice Minecraft videos and games.
Thanks you all for your time!

You're computer can play almost high-end games, but i recommend to you a processor that 3.0ghz or higher, 1 GB Video Card or higher, a 8 GB RAM or higher, Recommend on minecraft add some SSD to make it faster

Heeeey, it's not TERRIBLE for gaming, just you wouldn't be able to run most high-end games. My laptop is basically the same, it just can't run anything like Skyrim or Dear Esther since the processor really sucks -_- (I have 1.8 duel core) but for games like Minecraft or similar, you'd be able to handle them well.

ouch. this is horrible for gaming..

those specs are not that great here is a rather okay setup for your budget, little over it but shopping around and putting it together yourself can be better off

- CPU/Processor AMD AM3 FX-8320 Black Edition (Eight -Core 3.5GHz/Turbo Core up to 4.00 GHz/8MB)

850w is really overkill for those specs.

It's an ASUS A53SD.
You might find it on Amazon or New egg, but of you can't a lot of good ASUS laptops (without Windows 8) are built to handle games as well.

http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16834152388 I recommend this, or http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16834314004
$900 for a dual 2.4ghz processor, and a 256mb video card?
My whole gaming desktop setup cost less than that.
There's a really good laptop my sister has, it's an ASUS around $600 that handles games pretty well. If you're interested, I'll get the serial code for you.
Please

Well I am playing Minecraft on my pc which has 2.5 gb of DDR1, a 2.2ghz dual core athlon x2 and a 1gb geforce 9800gt. I run minecraft just fine using Optifine and I record and render videos all day without problems. (Warning if you have this set up and you want to render hd videos, DO NOT TRY AND MULTI-TASK) I think I paid a grand total of $60 for this thing. But I am dropping $250 to upgrade since my pc won't be able to handle next gen games.

ddr1... wow ancient lol
i personally would spend $1000 on a PC over a laptop unless you are always moving around your house or go and game at a friends house a lot, some of the specs above from other posters are good for what you need, also if your heart is set on a laptop a Dell or HP with at least 4gb ram (8 is better) and an i5 or i7 processor would do what you need
minecraft is a game that relies more on ram and processing power than graphic power of a pc

Those are the worst specs EVER for playing games. I recommend Intel i5 or higher, and at LEAST 8GB's of RAM

CPU: Intel Core i5-3570k Quad Core 3.4GHz CPU
Mobo: Gigabyte GA-Z77-UD3H Motherboard
RAM: 8GB Kingston, Corsair, or Crucial RAM
GPU: Either a GTX 660 or Radeon 7850 (I have 7850, love it)
HDD: 60GB Intel SSD
HDD2: 500GB or 1TB Western Digital Drive
Power Supply 650W or greater
AMD Option:
CPU: AMD FX-8320 Eight Core
Mobo: Gigabyte GA-990FXA-UD3 Mobo
RAM: 8GB Kingston, Corsair, or Crucial RAM
GPU: Either a GTX 660 or Radeon 7850 (I have 7850, love it)
HDD: Intel SSDs are good, but Samsungs are good too
HDD2: 500GB or 1TB Western Digital Drive
PSU: 650W or Greater

I would suggest a HP laptop. From my experience they are great laptops, despite the overheating. It can be prevented if you vent it properly though.

Also where can I buy a good computer or should I build it? Sorry I am really noob to this kind of stuff. :/ thanks you guys for your help

For your budget, are you looking for a new PC tower or a laptop?

Laptop

Well. I work a bit with graphic cards, and sorry to say, but you won't be able to play many games with a 256 mb card these days. I would recommend a Radeon HD 6670+ for playing higher end games. You might want to acquire more RAM too, as 2 gb is more of the minimum requirements. A much better processer would be an i5 3570k.

No, it isn't very good for games at all.
