That's a good price, and your upgrades will make it a good and pleasant to use machine for most non-intensive tasks, but the CPU is going to bottleneck it in anything intensive.

 Almost as cool as my temps

I'm mainly using it for school work. Maybe, rarely some older games.

Thanks for the link. It is a pretty good deal, and that processor is fine for school work.

And found some RAM for even cheaper. Nice, can't wait for this all to get here.
