The system has a strong dedicated graphics card. You should have no difficulty at all with this hardware/software combination. Nearly all games that with compatibility under Windows 7 will run under Windows 8.

Hi

I haven't found any game that won't run in Windows 8 that can be run in Windows XP or Windows 7.
Even my old Tomb Raider games from the 90s seem to run fine.

I suppose that some graphics cards may not support some of the old stuff, but I haven't had any problems with my nVidia Geforce 680 card.
