1. The 4650 is NOT a high end card. It's more like an HTPC card. You'll need a 48xx card or better for real gaming.

2. What's your budget for the build? List full specs.

3. What resolution do you plan to play at?

4. Overclocking?

Yes, the CPU is fine. Try and get a 4670 or a 4850/4830. HOWEVER, running any thing above a 4670 is a concern due to the fact that it's an OEM HP PC which dosen't have a high quality PSU. For gaming, GPU matters more than CPU.

don't take 4670, go for 4850.
and the most important thing is get a higher quality PSU for your system.
Believe me, your system need that... :)

I know i suck on computers and English but what PSU,GPU and OEM HP PC mean?
And i would very well buy a 4850 BUT if i buy the computer for 600€ who got a hd 4650 i have to buy the hd 4850 separated.And that would be expensive.Ty guys for helping :)
