A few months ago my brother passed away and he gave me his pc. Cody=Brother was the computer wiz of the family and i don't know all that much about them.... Okay it's a bunch of jibberish to me! haha. Anywho I was thinking of doing some lite gaming but i dont want to by a game that i cant run. it would be just a waste of money. And before anyone here asked if i've gone to the "Can I run it" website, yes i have but it keeps saying hardware not recognized or something similar. I would also like to know what else I can do with this thing.  Anyway here is the jibberish i was talking about;-)

Sorry,

You can not only game probably 1080p high-ultra but maybe 1440p on high also.

You can also render videos like a mad man and have no problem recording, editing, basically any CPU task you are set.

Wait.. I seen the crossfire part. Easily 1440p max setting though you have a ultrawide 2560x1080 monitor. Easily Max on any current optimized game.
