Quick question about a AMD athlon 64
Hey guys so i have a old HP slimline pc that i been parting out. My friend wanted to have a lan party at my place.. but couldnt bring up his rig because of its size. Since i know nothing about AMD would a AMD Athlon 64 X 2 Dual Core 5400+ and was thinking of putting a 8800gt in it. .. i was wondering if this would be good enough to play left4dead2?
Thanks for the help! Edit: heres the system, when i bought it on amazon http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B00...ms_ohs_product

It would run, and it would probably be quite playable (though rather CPU limited) with an 8800GT.
__________________However, that system won't take a full height card, and I don't know of any low profile 8800GTs.

In that case, you should be fine, if the PSU can handle it.

Obviously it's going to run better on more powerful systems, but I think it would run well enough to be enjoyable on the 5400+.
__________________The original L4D used the same engine, and a 5000+ could handle it with and acceptable minimum frame rate:  They are using a much better GPU in that test and if anything were more CPU limited.
