It'll run,but i doubt you'll be able to really play games... Upgrade your RAM and CPU... and possibly the video card. CS3,i doubt it. it needs a real good pc... Also,what's your graphic ram? | My System Specs | | OS Windows XP Home SP3 x32 |

And my video card memory is 128mb Ram... True, but the total Windows 7 experience will not be as good and you may experience slow-downs and hangs if the system isn't up to the minimum specs. | My System Specs | | Computer type PC/Desktop System Manufacturer/Model Number Home Built Desktop By DataTech OS Windows 7 Ultimate X64 SP1 CPU Intel i5-2550K, Differing ~4.4-4.8GHz No built in GPU Motherboard ASUS P8Z68-V PRO/GEN3 Memory 16GB G.Skill Sniper 2133MHz 4x4GB Graphics Card ASUS ENGTX460 DirectCU/2DI/1GD5 GeForce GTX 460 Sound Card Onboard Realtek 5-1 Monitor(s) Displays Samsung P2570HD Screen Resolution 1920x1080 Keyboard Old, beat-up Dell USB From 10 yrs Ago Mouse Gigabyte m6900 wired PSU Corsair HX650W Case Inwin Dragon Rider Cooling Hyper 212 EVO w/two Noctua fans, push-pull, @1300 RPM Hard Drives Crucial M4 128GB for OS, 750GB Seagate MomentusXT for data, 500GB Seagate Constellation for storage Internet Speed 8-19 Mbs down, 3-4 Mbs up Comcast Cable Antivirus Norton Internet Security Browser IE 9, Opera when needed Other Info 4 case fans, LG BluRay-RE, ASUS DVD-RW, Mr. Fusion power generator with flux capacitor, 1.21 gigawatts. |

I realize that this thread us old and almost dead, but I thought I'd mention that Goodwill is now selling Dell Optiplex GX280's with Windows 7 shoehorned onto them. My google search to figure port why is what brought me to this forum. | My System Specs | | OS Windows 7 home premium 64 bit |
