I hope this link works since im new to this site.

Soo could this computer run games such as Call of duty 4 and Starcraft 2 on medium/high settings?

Its ok. You could build something for the same price that is better though.

I doubt you'd get good frame rates on that card, the 5570. It's kind of hard to answer this question accurately. It depends on the monitor size and resolution you plan to run. It also depends on how much you're willing to sacrifice in terms of quality. If you turn everything down to low and turn off everything you can, you might get decent frames. At that price I would keep looking or build your own. There is an excellent guide here on this site to help you get started. In a DIY build for 750.00, you'd come out with a nice budget gamer able to play most new games on decent settings.
