doesnt seem to bad for a cheapish prebuilt ,apart from the obvious onbaord gfx ,luckily tho it appears to have a pci- x16 slot available.

altho tbh if u gonna spend that much on a prebuilt ,why not w8 a while and get something better ?

Buy a pre-built that you can part from for your future DIY build.

the spec is decent, but you would be better off building your own intel for that price... for a pre-built at that price tho, you cant do much better... its a nice comp. you could even OC a bit with clockgen... which would net you a decent gain.

EDIT... with a nice videocard... (maybe like a 8800GT or a 3870) you will be able to run all the games at high(ish) settings ( i like my games at 50+ FPS, none of this 28FPS bullS*^).

Agree...

use the money, and upgrade and swap the defective parts in your current rig.
