You can't trust the numbers on video cards, hon. I always take a cheat sheet with me when I shop for them. As for the chip... "Sempron" = "crippled". Seriously, the semprons are only fit for 'office' stuff, and no good at all for games. I would have gone for an Athlon 64 3200 or above, if I wanted to play things like Quake. :( Did you put it together yourself, or buy it already assembled? If the latter, you almost certainly got ripped off. You can always put together a better system (sometimes _much_ better) for the same price by buying pieces from NewEgg or a couple other places and putting them together yourself. Sorry.
