Happy Holidays! I recently obtained a Dell Optiplex 745 (745LP-2.8PD-8-1T-CMB-7P64) for my son, and was wondering how well it handles gaming? Here are some of the specs:
Processor: Intel Pentium D (2.80ghz)
Ram: 8GB
Hard Drive: 1 TB
with Windows 7 Pro.
He was looking to play games like Minecraft, Flash Games, Portal, TF2, Euro Truck Simulator, Incredipede, Kerbal Space Program, etc.
He also uses Stencyl alot.
By the way, finding out the most advanced game it can play smoothly would be fine.
