SRO doesn't take much to run, and this is definitely good enough. Like others have said in a similar thread, you might not be able to max shadows, but you're fine maxing most everything else.

LOL! That computer will kick SRO's ass. Until you turn on detailed shadows anyway but no computer can run that. That computer will be able to run most modern games at medium to medium high settings and sro came out a while ago.
