Are these stats good enough to play car games like need for speed(any need...

[Bigead]

...for speed games)? Windows Vista Ultimate, 4GB RAM, 3TB of total hard drive space, ATi Radeon 4870 1GB graphics card, a normal sound card, and Intel(R) Pentium(R) 4 CPU 3.06GHz.

My monitor resolution is 1280 by 1024 pixels if you were wondering.
I still want to keep the processor because when you check the computer properties in windows vista, it has a rating of 4.2.

 

[Akarsh]

it should run nfs smoothly... no worries.... i think its a p4, the rating is showing 4.2.....

p4's are like old now..... other wise i think you got a great system......

3ghz p4 it good.... i think you can upgrade next year......

 

[emankcin]

It should. A Core Duo would be more efficient

 

[Shane]

That should be more than enough.
If you do have quality problems, just change the graphic settings in the game.
