Well, it depends what you want to do with it, do you want skyrim to run good on max settings?
if yes, no i think. (im not familiar with how graphics heavy skyrim is, (i play all my RPGs on consoles))
if its just for casual play on low settings, sure.

IMO, Its not the best deal, but it does not suck.

Make sure it works before buying.

Yes I would like high-ultra graphics and be able to mod.. that's why I would invest in a higher end GPU... about the price of the whole PC lol. But I know skyrim is heavily cpu.. so idk. Just a thought. Ran across a good deal and wanted opinions. Nothing I'm too excited about. Its hard to find good deals on used gaming rigs... and building one isn't for a college budget. I'm already surviving on Ramen and water

The best place to find the best deals is to ask family and friends, since they are probably likely to sell you their stuff at cheaper than they would with a stranger :D

but like nashdes001 said, a nice graphics card could make it work.
