Yes it will. COD isn't really that demanding.

As for BF3 then thats another matter. I can't comment on your ATI card as I haven't had an ATI card for years. I'm guessing if you play at 1920 x 1200 then it won't be good enough to have all the games features turned on. Somebody with your set up should be able to confirm this though.

But you asked about COD so I stand with my first paragraph.

My system uses Nvidia cards in SLI with an Intel Quad core processor at 4 Ghz and it runs both games very well in full HD and all aspects turned on full.

I have had a problem with the latest two sets of drivers from Nvidia which brought my system to its knees so I just went back to the last one that worked well. Therefore its not always the hardware that is the problem.

Also on the newer cards heat seems to be an issue so keep your case cool.

I was going to say that is a slow(ish) hard drive but the spec on the seagate site says 7,200rpm.

Can't see the full spec of the machine that you have been offered, key components like RAM (quantity / speed), HDD type / speed - and I guess most importantly cost. Or does offered mean free? If it is the latter then take it
