    the cpu will bottleneck the hell outta your pc. and because you consider putting new stuff into a pc you just bought , id recommend you to build your own pc. its better believe me. that pc more outdated than my granddads pc( really ).

    Not worth it. 8gb DDR2 isnt cheap anymore, its an old AM2 socket motherboard.
    At most, stick a new hard disk in it and then use it as a file server. Not a whole lot else you can do with it if you already have a PC. CPU in this day and age is pretty terrible.

    I didn't buy it. It was free.

    - - - Updated - - -

    I thought I put in the wrong section because it isn't support. I thought it would be more general discussion

    I hate when people try to build a pc buy like this and then spend lots of money to upgrade it.. Just build one from the ground up, for about the same price youll have better hardware and be able to say u built it.

    No i tried to run drive on our old computer that has a Athlon X2 250 in it and that struggled. I don't know what FPS it was getting but it was unplayable. Don't waste any money on this PC and save up for a new one.

    I know that this isn't the best way to go about this but if i get this Asus computer. Is the CPU okay and if I upgrade the PSU and put a 750ti would it be okay for beamng. I will eventually build a PC but I am limited on dinero at the moment?

    That could actually work but unless you can get the PC for less than $200 its not worth it
