How is my computer right now?
Hello,I just got this computer handed down to me and I was wondering how well it fares into todays gaming.
Processors: Intel Pentrium 4 CPU 3.00GHz x 2
Memory(RAM): 2.00GB
Graphics: Geforce 6800 x 2
How are these specs for gaming right now? Should I upgrade any certain components?
Thanks you for your answers! =D

Uh oh...
Your computer is doing great!
Please take good care of it.
I've played League of Legends and Hearthstone with it,so I know its at least capable of playing some games
No for modern games. At the very least, you'll be able to run MS with it. Normal hunting, training, questing, FM browsing on low quality settings should give about 30+ FPS, but for heavy bossing, you'll likely crash and/or have severe lag due to minimal FPS (1-10 range).
I had a pentium 4 for 10 years (died last year) and it's incredibly outdated. It can barely play any games and even with a gpu like that you can't really run anything modern. The only thing I'd say is good for is old comptuer games.

I don't think he can play maple fine with that, but depending on what he does, maple [i]should[/i] run fine. I would say keep it if all you do is play maple and browse the internet and like talk to friend with skype or something.
2 GB RAM? I didn't know that was possible!
You can play Maple just fine with that.
I dont think that thing can game properly or even turn on a load of games with that kind of ram.
mayb u can play like tetris..
I think you could get 1 fps on maple with that. But honestly upgrade everything.
seems fine
That processor is honestly fine for most games that don't have multi core support, the ram and gpu suck though
That thing is ridiculously outdated.
Pentium 4s are from Windows 2000/XP days, most modern PCs in retail stores carry a minimum of 4GB 1066 MHz DDR3 RAM, and you need a good chunk of that to be able to manage background services and light resource-binding programs. Same goes for the 6000 Geforce series; it was relevant back in the early 2000s.
Trash it.
