Hello, I am buying a desktop computer to use for school and (hopefully) skyrim, but I am not very knowledgeable when it comes to computes. I have one picked out that I think would work, but I'm not sure. So if any of you tell me if the specs on this computer:

http://h20386.www2.hp.com/CanadaStore/Merch/Product.aspx?id=F3E47AA&opt=ABL&sel=PCDT

would fit these minimum requirements:

Windows 7/Vista/XP PC (32 or 64 bit)
Processor: Intel Dual Core 2.0GHz or equivalent processor (AMD Sempron @ 2.4 GHz)
2GB System RAM
6GB free HDD space
Direct X 9.0c compliant video card with 512 MB of RAM
DirectX compatible sound card


If it doesn't fit the requirements, could any of you suggest a desktop computer for around the same price that would fit the requirements? Thanks in advance to anyone who answers

That will play Skyrim, but only on low settings or possibly medium settings at reduced resolution.

At $400, it'll be tough to find a computer that can play Skyrim well. If that's your max budget, it might be worth getting a more powerful used system for $400. Building your own computer is also an option.
