Kinda?... 2gb video cards are basically dead at this point but it will have enough performance to probably do ultrawide medium-high settings for most new AAA titles

I'm pretty annoyed that the 380s are 2gb base or 4gb. The 280s were 3gb, performed the same as the 960, and had more VRAM at the same cost. Now there is no edge whatsoever between the 380 and 960 since they cost pretty much the same

It would do decent, but I would probably suggest a GPU with a little more VRAM like MSI's R9 380 with 4GB or a R9 280x.

Ah ok I'm sure I can fit in the 4g version.

Also look at the build I posted. Better quality parts overall IMO and an SSD really isn't necessary and doesn't give any real performance increase for games

If you chose to upgrade to a rig like mine, I think that the 4 gigs of vram would help. (I do ultrawide 1080p and can max out most games with full aa.)

The HDD he had included was already at 0GBP (so he has that already)
