does this look like it is good enough to run sc2?
i want to upgrade my computer and get starcraft 2 for my brother for his birthday/graduation gift when he gets done with boot camp
i think it can because i used to run counter strike ez with no lag, i know counter strike has bad graphics but still sc2 is not a fps like css

No. Needs more RAM and a new video card for sure, and that CPU is old as hell so you may want a newer processor as well. I'm not familiar with the pins on that mobo, you may need to get a new one if the new technology isn't compatible.
