Can my computer run ANY Transformers Games!?!?

Hey, guys. A while ago, (And by a while, I mean about 3 months ago) I was dead set of buying the new Transformers game: Fall of Cybertron, and I was saving up my money to get it. Long story short, I got enough money, but, as it turned out, my Processor wasn't even NEAR what it had to be to run the game.

So, I was wondering if I could run older Transformer games, like Revenge of the Fallen, but Gamestop says that it needs at least: Pentium 4 @ 2.4 GHz/AMD Athlon Equivalent

but I don't know how my processor is compared to that! Can someone please tell me?

Here's my computer specs:

Processor: AMD E-300 APU with Radeon™ HD Graphics 1.30 GHz
Installed Memory (RAM): 4.00 (3.60 usable)
System Type: 64-bit Operating System



( And, I don't know how to find the rest of my specs. Can someone tell me where I can see my DirectX and my Hard Drive Space? :p )


Also, if you know the certain games that my computer can run, please tell me.
(Ex: You're computer can only run: Transformers: Revenge of the Fallen, Transformers: Dark of the Moon, and Transformers: War for Cybertron.)

How do I put this simply... your computer is something like from the early 2000s and needs to be chunked out the window and replaced with a new computer. :)

This is your processor, if what you've said is correct: http://www.cpubenchmark.net/cpu.php?cpu=AMD E-300 APU
This is my processor, custom built a year ago: http://www.cpubenchmark.net/cpu.php?cpu=AMD FX-8150 Eight-Core

Look at the score difference. If you're anywhere under 3,000, you're running on an old processor.

Actually, I see what's going on. You've got a netbook. The E-300 was released in 2011, but meant for netbooks. It's not old, it's just tiny.
Netbooks aren't meant for gaming, but more for on-the-go document processing, powerpoints, and so forth.
If you want a gaming computer, you'll have to buy an actual laptop, not a netbook.

How can I tell if I have a netbook?

Woah!!!!! You have an 8 CORE PROCESSOR!?!?!?!? I have a dual core, and I thought that the highest was Quad-Core! O_O

Well, I did buy this for $300. But it's most certainly not a netbook... Or, at least, I think so.


EDIT: Wow! Now that I look at it, it could be a netbook.

Yeah, if you bought it for $300, it's more than likely a netbook. As of recent, laptops are usually more expensive due to the hardware in them (e.g. i5/i7s). Netbooks are the cheapest "laptop" out there, just not meant for gaming.

Oh... Huh. Aww well. Thanks for bringing this to my attention! :)
