With the hardware listed, definitely. You haven't mentioned which OS you'll be using.

Just install the game directly to your c:\ drive and not to the default location. Which version of SH4 will you be using?

I'll probably be using Windows 8, if you can recommend a version of Windows that is free, I'll be extremely happy. As for the version of SH4, the most recent one.

I'm afraid I don't know of a free version of Windows, unless your upgrading from Win 7 or 8.1 to Win 10. The upgrade is free, but that is all.

Ok, thanks a lot. I guess I'll go with Windows 7 or 8, not 10. If there is anything you can recommend to me to lower the price and increase the power, please, tell me. I want to get the ultimate cheap PC

As for the setup, is it okay, or do I need to replace the motherboard, graphics card or CPU?

Just out of curiosity, are you assembling this computer or is someone else?

As for your setup, just go with what you've got and see what happens.
