Hey my friend has a pc, and before he upgrades it he wants to know due to the age of it will it still run windows 8?

Specs:
intel core 2 duo e8200 @ 2.66
3.25 gig of ram ddr2
p5k se/epu?
geforce 9600 gt

Will it run windows 8.1?

Thanks!!

Requirements:
Processor: 1 gigahertz (GHz) or faster with support for PAE, NX, and SSE2 (more info)
RAM: 1 gigabyte (GB) (32-bit) or 2 GB (64-bit)
Hard disk space: 16 GB (32-bit) or 20 GB (64-bit)
Graphics card: Microsoft DirectX 9 graphics device with WDDM driver

Windows 8 has insanely low requirements to use, much like XP. He'll be fine.
