I just wan't to be able to run TF2,CS:S,L4D,L4D2 and possibly some others.

 

Will it run those on High smoothly?

 

I'm not too familiar with Radeon, is it a good graphics card?

I don't understand why you would invest in a Core i5, but slap it with a low end graphics card. In fact, there is no reason to ever equip a computer with anything below a mid-end card. It's like slapping 4 spares on an Evo. (bad comparison, please do not flame me).

I'm not going to flame you. lol

 

I was just seeing what people would think of this machine, I found it for pretty cheap and I wanted some feedback.

 

Cheap as in how much? If you can get that for ~600, just grab a better graphics card and swap out the 4350.

 

BTW, that computer can run CS:S, but L4D and L4D 2 will probably need to be lower in picture quality.

Yeah, it was about $550, but I'd rather save up and invest in something that will be worth while.
