What Video Games Can My Computer Handle?

So you just had your system working again from At Home Computer Chico computer repair, and your friend from work just can't shut up about how awesome the new Call of Duty: Black Ops is, so you think, "Hey, I've got a my PC working again, I should go get it and see what's so great about it."  You go to Best Buy after work, shell out $60, and when you start installing it your computer pops up a message saying "Your System Does Not Meet The Minimum Requirements."  Crap.  You should've just bought that new battery for your Blackberry.  And you know Best Buy doesn't take back software.  So how could you have prevented this tragic scenario from befalling you?

www.CanYouRunIt.com

Can You Run It, created by System Requirements Lab, is an ingenious website that sends you a small online applet that asks for a little information from your system, and in turn, can tell you how well your system will play your chosen game (if it can play it at all).  Now go get a faster video card!

        Woohoo!  I can run Black Ops!  Now to find the time to play it....


Have fun,
