Guess kind of, if you want a slow computer. I would suggest buying a better one for like 100$.

It only holds 2gb of memory and only has two slots which sucks hard.

Where did you read that? It can hold up to 16GB RAM, comes with 2GB which I don't care because I have loads more to install already.

It also comes with a Core 2 Duo E6600, which is enough to play Skyrim with no problems.

Full details here: http://uk.asus.com/Motherboards/Intel_Socket_775/P5Q_PRO/#specifications

This is just a motherboard, I'm not talking about the rest of the stuff that can and will be upgraded.

Oh, i thought it said max 2gb ram, well it is a good motherboard for the price. There is one that is almost the same here. http://ncix.com/products/?sku=30418

The price is 150 new.

Alright for that price I reckon but I got a feeling it will end up being about £75 by the time it ends and I'm sure you can buy a new one of the net cheaper than £70. Don't quote me on that though :P

I use this motherboard.

IMO, never buy a used motherboard. If I buy computer parts, I always buy new. Another thing, if you go cheap on a motherboard now and buy one with limited capabilities, you won't be able to upgrade your other parts as high as you might want to go.
