Are these gaming PC's specs good?

"3.2GHz Dual-core" is actually quite pitiful.

Seeing as most games don't use both cores, what you're really looking at is a huge CPU bottleneck caused by (essentially) a 4-year-old midrange processor from the then-losing manufacturers' lineup.

Yes, that's right, it's basically a  3.2GHz Pentium 4.

There's no point having an 8800 with that.

Since he went up to the 8800 he can now play all games on full settings, which he couldn't before.

He does realise the next component he buys will have to be a better cpu but whilst he can run everything on full why bother.
