Its ok for old games. I would steer away from AMD boards and for that price you can get one at Compusa that is better and same price on sale!

That board would be good for some of the newer games too if you add enough RAM. As for the AMD comment, I would like to paraphrase on this. AMD during it's build leaves out a lot of the numbercrunching programming that is used with most high end business applications, and that is how they keep them cheaper than Intel. So Intel is better for extreme gaming. AMD works just as well for almost any regular games though. As for the price, I would recommend looking for an identical set at http://www.pricewatch.com and see how much you can save there. Hope this helps
