No. Even with a graphics card, you can't play games that require AGA. You need the 1200/4000 for those.

80/125 Euro is fine for an A2000, especially with all the extra equipment installed like the flicker fixer.

Try finding a bigger HD, which should be pretty easy.

Actually for the price it is a pretty good deal.  AGA games require an Amiga that has the AGA chipset which is only the A1200or the A4000.  To play any game requiring that chipset requires one of the above.  A1200 are fairly cheap, but again the A2000 is a great computer and there are plenty of fun games out there for it.

i can of course buy this combo, and sell my std a2000 then go for a cheap a1200 for next to the a2000 ?
so i have the best of both worlds  :-D
