Hello everyone!
After the Steam Winter Sale's my computer has been running low on space due to all of the games I've been downloading.
I'm wondering if this is powerful enough for me to run games off?

You can run games on it. However, it will be slower than on normal hdd due to 5400 rpm and usb connection.
Why you don't buy an Internal Hard Drive?
Decent hdd:

(don't forget to buy a power and a sata cable for it
