Help is needed

Well, I'm stupid when it comes to computer stuff and i need help finding out if this new PC I'm getting for D3(and D2 and SC2 and WC3 and etc.) will run Diablo 3 properly

the link to the computer will be down belowr, any computers from the SX series of gateway will do, unless a better computer is found without it being much more expensive (im looking for one within about $600)

i highly doubt it. thats a pentium i3 processor, i'd get i5 at least. diablo 3 is very specific on video cards. and since the link for that computer does not show the graphics card i'd be weary. also dont get a gateway. get a dell or hp if you cant afford a good gaming computer. but check the video card against diablo 3s approved video card

You can find a lot better PC for around 600, just do the research and dont pre-cum

Don't take hp, they are full of bugs unsuported by guarantie.
Take a dell, guarantie service is good, performance meet a low / average price.

An i5 should be ok
4 gb ram
don't take intel graphics hd cards, they should work (not 100% sure tho) but are integrated graphics.
Also seek for a 7200 rpm hdd for a laptop.

you can build a pretty good gaming rig for 600.

i didn't see anything about the graphics in the link you gave, however the cpu can handle all those games.

220w psu so it's a low end on board card.

i personally wouldn't buy that computer, but if you did, you might have to invest 40-100$ on a gfx card. you would also need a stronger psu, so another $40
