Can this computer play starcraft2?

[kevinli08]

I recently bought a desktop but I could barely play sc2 on low setting, it still lags a bit. I was wondering if buying this new computer will work to at least play on med/high setting or even ultRA. My friends told me that I could only play on low/med setting with the specs but they're not exactly computer tech people so hopefully someone can give me an answer.

Yes that Pc will play Starcraft2 at med/high settings at 1600x900 and lower.

But if you're going to spend that amount of money I suggest you build your own,for that price you can build a quality PC that will able to run most games at high settings.

thanks for the advice, but as you can tell, I know almost nothing about computers. It would be a miracle if I could find a decent computer for a decent price, let alone building one. >.< Thanks for the help though, I really appreciate it

This build will play every game at pretty good settings.I'm sure theres other builds that are cheaper.For starcraft this PC will play it at Ultra settings including AA and AF.
I have a similar build such as this, except my cpu is an athlonx3 440 which is slower.

Dont be scared of building one Kev, check section 4 out on this http://www.tomshardware.co.uk/forum/288241-13-read-posting-buyer-guides-troubleshooting

Take your time and it really isn't as scary as you might think, you get a better pc for the outlay, you understand it more so you can faultfind and fix if necessary, go on, read up, learn a little more and take the plunge
