    Welcome to the forums!

    It sounds like it would make a dandy Linux box. Look at this thread for favorite distros for older hardware:

    Keep in mind that Linux is not the best OS for heavy gaming, but there are ways of playing games under Linux. You can check out the link in my signature for lots of good information on getting started with Linux.

    Have fun with the Linux experience...
