Right now on my work computer. A dell that cost 1200 dollars I have a Core 2 Duo, 320 GB HD, 2 GB of Ram, Radeon X1600 and a 20 in flat panel monitor with a native resolution of 1600X1200.

Guess What it plays games at 1600X1200 no sweat. Maybe not Crysis. But my home built PC has a GeForce 8800 and it should be able to.
