How much FPS would I get with this computer?

well..the vid card on it sucks...maybe 100 and i say maybe..,i got a 4yo system that makes 300 fps or so max

The 6150se is better than most intel integrated graphics, but I'm still not sure it would perform very well.

I would suggest you buy that pc and upgrade it to a cheap discrete card like the 9400gt, which will work well because its cheap, its a low power card, and it will get the job done for simple games like CF.

Yep, You can always upgrade on that 300 budget. I'm going to be upgrading computer on a 200budget, 500W - 3.00ghz - Windows Xp (Free from friend) and some 100bucks graphic card that works wonderful for my screen resolution. If you have a small screen you don't need a High-High end graphic card only if your going to buy let's say a 25+inch' Can play games nice on Medium - High, L4d,l4d2,MW2,etc

Honestly I would buy that PC then upgrade the GPU to lets say a 8800 GT. They are cheap as dirt on E-bay and will still max out most games.

It also depends on where u live. (CF)

I downloaded CF on an older XP PC in the basement.

Specs:
Intel Pentium 4 CPU @ 3.2 Ghz not overclocked with HT and a 800 FSB.
512 MB DDR RAM.
Geforce FX5200 256MB GPU.

Yes, those specs are UTTER sh*t, but I could still get like 40 FPS on 1024x768 and at the highest settings.
I'm guessing you'll get around 70+ on CF which is more than enough...

For any of you just wondering: YES, I have obviously upgraded since then. -.-'

Crossfire is a cpu dependant game more then the graphics card by a long shot. If you are using a P4 or later, your experence will be dependant on the GHZ of 1 core. For comparison, i used an 8600gts with a core2Duo at 2.2ghz and got 40-60fps. With an 4890(a newer card) and my processor clocked slightly higher at 2.48ghz, i'm getting 50-70fps. So, the faster your single core, the better your experence.

Investing in a good CPU is always good

AMD normally have good clock speeds, so thats not a problem, however you should upgrade that graphics to something like 8600GT. True card for a budget gamer/
