Nalates Urriah Posted September 14, 2016 Share Posted September 14, 2016 It will. How well is debatable. The Radeon HD 8330 Graphics is going to have its challenges with SL. The SL viewers are based on OpenGL. The AMD/ATI manufacturer does not provide good support for OpenGL. While it is debatable whether Nvidia is the 'better' graphics card they do provide good support for OpenGL. The AMD A4-5000 1.5 GHz CPU is going to be a serious problem. My Quad Core 2.4ghz was slow, 5-25 FPS. Windows 8 or 10 with 4GB of RAM is limited. It will work but, you will be crashing. 8GB will run SL way better on Win 8 or 10 and far fewer crashes. I recommend Win 10. If you want a better cheap computer, look through the machines on eBay. But, you do have to know what you are looking for. There are scams on Amazon, eBay, and even Dell sells new computers with OLD tech. They have new computers that use Core2 CPU;s, which are something like seven generations behind the latest CPU's. I wish you luck. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nine Warrhol Posted September 15, 2016 Share Posted September 15, 2016 It will low to mid settings no eye candy. If you want more, you will need beefier hardware. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

LinuxGod4u Posted February 4, 2017 Share Posted February 4, 2017 Older post, but on a tight budget... I agree with Nalates CPU is too weak & I assume you are on a tight budget. for those on a real tight budget here is a thought: https://www.amazon.com/Dell-Optiplex-980-SFF-Desktop/dp/B01L7UBBJU/ref=sr_1_7?s=pc&ie=UTF8&qid=1486186754&sr=1-7&keywords=desktop+computer&refinements=p_36%3A2421880011 Need a low profile graphics card: https://www.amazon.com/MSI-Computer-Graphics-Cards-N750TI-2GD5TLP/dp/B00SOXMPJY/ref=sr_1_1?m=ATVPDKIKX0DER&s=pc&ie=UTF8&qid=1486187043&sr=1-1&keywords=low+profile+gtx+750&refinements=p_6%3AATVPDKIKX0DER You'd need an USB keyboard & USB mouse...tower is recertified...hard drive is not the fastest...
