I have a friend that builds towers and he's been trying to sell me one of them for weeks now. I've turned him down on a few, mainly because he prices a bit too high, for older legit parts in the rig. I'm a little caught up with this one though. I'm still a ripe noob in this world so I thought I'd ask here.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Dual (2) Quad Core Intel Xeon E5450 @ 3.0GHZ 1333 FSB 12 MB L2 cache (8 physical cores)
16 GB or fully buffered ECC DDR2 memory (max 32 GB)
750 GB Hard drive
Front and rear 1394 Firewire 800 ports
Dual layer DVD/RW combo drive
Nvidia Geforce 8800 GTX with 768 MB (dual DVI for multiple monitors)
13 in 1 media card reader
Operating System: Windows 7 Professional 64 bit

He wants $500 for the tower with 16 gigs ram, or $400 for 8 gigs. How would this machine stand up to running games like skyrim and swtor on low-medium settings? Also, is the price loosely fair, or should I try to talk him down a bit or pass it up?
