Might play the lighter games , wouldn't expect much out of it let alone full speed the CPU is acceptable but the onboard intel gpu pretty much kills it even it it the one with the Ati x1300 pro it isnt gona do much good either might be better then the on board intel gpu. I would be shocked if it plays many if any at full speed,but I could be wrong

Man, how you stated the specs is like you'd read from the marketing department or from a seller, not what a geek would look upon
But, that's OK, more important is to know the CPU architecture, modern i3 would be a lot faster than older core duo or even more ancient architectures.
So, yes, Livy is right, there is no way to get the real machine power from that specification, albeit it suggests it "was" a powerful machine at it's time.
