About the CPU, Ram and HDD, seems enough to run GTA.
About the Graphics card, 512mb ram... It does run gta sa well.

It's good enough for casual games, but don't expect to run anything high-end on it. WoW is what .. 10 years old?
I'm not a fan of AMD (neither their CPUs, nor their graphics card) and I've never heard of the brand either, but it might be something that's only sold in the Americas.

Dont use lab or canirunit. They're useless, they just want to install advertisement stuff on your machine and get money.

Please get your facts straight before mouthing off about things you clearly don't have a clue about.

I know plenty about it. It is very unreliable, just about everyone I've known to have used it has said they got it wrong. And it isn't a free lunch when you use it either, when you give it the java access or whatever it asks for (I can't remember exactly) it dumps a bunch of tracking cookies on your PC which are a lot harder to get rid of than plain browser cookies. That and it tries to get you to buy their garbage software to update your BIOS or your PC performance will be "bad".

Vince's statement would be correct. You could play games like GTA:SA and similar games with similar graphics, but don't expect to be playing BF3.
I am also not an AMD fan, so... there's a bit of an issue there! Same with Gateway, it's a crappy and cheap brand if you ask me!

I've had AMD, it is really slow. I suggest intel.

Gateway is owned by Acer, Which is well, the worst computer company next to eMachines, which I also believe is owned by Acer.

I suggest intel, but in January last year I got an AMD dual core notebook for christmas, and to be honest for general use like browsing it was absolutely fine, very fast. Even on SA though the GPU got VERY hot.
