So I just bought this pc as a starting point for building a gaming pc. I did not build my own because honestly, I don't know If i could trust myself to put the parts together. So I decided to just buy a pre-built one and upgrade it over time. My main question is about what it will be able to run out of the box. I already have a new graphics card picked out (which I wont be buying till black friday)
Games I'm looking to play are WoW, League of Legends, BioShock Infinite, The Amazing Spider-man, CoD: Ghosts, Borderlands 2. I know some of theres are new games, some are old. But if you guys could give me a rough estimate on how it will run these games I would really appreciate it. Thanks. :D

That has a GT 610 which is horrible for playing games, you'd be lucky to run those games on low at a tiny resolution

The 4130 is also a bulldozer CPU which is also pretty woeful

I'm not so sure I should believe this. I know this is not the best possible computer ever. But from what I've seen I should be able to run atleast a few of thoes things on a med/high range, thanks for the reply tho.

Check this hierarchy chart for a better picture (the GT 610 is a renamed GT 520)
http://www.tomshardware.com/reviews/gaming-graphics-card-review,3107-7.html

It could probably run on low (maybe medium) at resolutions below 720p

The fact that they labelled that as a gaming machine is dishonest :D

I don't know the power supply but reading some of the reviews posted (seems to be a 350W or so from a few sites I've browsed), a new GPU would do wonders for your gaming experience, notably a Radeon 7750 (GDDR5 version)

Yes, I will be replacing the GPU very soon, i have spent a good hour reading all the Q/As and Reviews and most of the games i want to play should be able to play on this comp on med settings. Guess We'll see when I get it.
Also looking at it I think I will buy a new card, you said the Radeon 7750 (GDDR5 version) would work well with this computer?

Sorry to say but what Roland said is correct. The 610 is not a gamingf card or even close its the cheapest GPU man can make. Also the 4130 is a dated part that was bad when it was released (but will allow you to game on OK settings with a Radeon 7750).
Its best to ask these questions before you buy.
