Hi,
I am considering purchasing the Lenovo H500S Desktop PC Tower. I am on a very tight budget and I found it on the following link for a reasonable price: http://www.argos.ie/static/Product/partNumber/2473161/Trail/searchtext>DESKTOP+PC.htm

I noticed that it runs windows 8.
I am currently a windows 7 user and I play all my games/sims on my laptop.
I wish to play minecraft and fsx on this PC and I am wondering are these games compatible with windows 8. Also, can anyone tell me the reliability of Lenovo products and would this be suitable for gaming?

Thanks

Lenovo makes good stuff at good prices.

It says that the CPU has four cores, but at that clock speed I think it must be a 2 core low power Celeron.

Minecraft uses JavaScript and runs on practically everything. Windows 8.1 would be better.

The computer appears to use a very low power CPU and relies on Integrated Graphics for gaming, so it can play a lot of games, but only at lower resolution, lower frame rates, and low to no graphic effects.
