    I'm just going out on a limb here to say this isn't a desktop but rather a laptop? with a GT 630m

    In desktops the GT 630 is a low end value card and not for gaming.

    If this is a laptop and that is the GT630m then giving more details like price, games you are playing ect would be a bit more telling.

    Just asking if its a good gaming rig without knowing what games or what you are paying for it leaves a lot open.

    This should help with determining the GPU's performance:

    NVIDIA GeForce GT 630M - Notebookcheck.net Tech

    It could be one of 3 different GPU's, but the benchmarks down the page are using the Rebadged GT 540M version with 96 shader cores. it shows SWTOR as one of the games and what it gets for performance, but keep in mind the benchmarks are laptop specific, as it may have a different CPU, RAM, and other stuff running the game.

    but the laptop your looking at has a i7 Quad in it, so it should run the game at least as good as the benchmark shows.
