yes indeed,it doesnt even cost $2,000 and it would still play Halo without any lag at all and still have xbox sound and xbox graphics. There are Gaming PC's that cost like $3,500
but they're so fast and they can have like 250GB HDD's. Probably in the next few years those PC's will be only worth like $1,400 bucks b/c every year computers get cheaper as faster ones are developed

heh. Almost the identical computer I built myself for almost twice the price. About the only difference is that mine's a micro-ATX case, 450w PSU, and an Athelon 3000.
Not to say that's not a good computer. Just that it's usually cheeper to build yourself.

and more fun.
You might be surprised how easy it is. So long as you remember to keep yourself grounded, it's pretty much a matter of 'tab A goes in slot B'.

Yeah, it really isn't all that hard. To prove this, take your computer apart and try putting it back together. Not that bad, eh?

Building a pc is like building legos, exept that if you drop or step on something it wont cost you a couple bricks it may cost you a couple hundred dollars

And thusly why there is no shame in buying prebuilt. If you don't want to take that chance, don't do it. I built my own and saved a bit, at some risk to the parts. M9 will be spending a bit more, but will have almost no risk.

Its not that great.
1. the CPU is only a 3400+
2. The Video card is out dated and its AGP
3. Only a Gig of ram
4. The case is a gay little premod
5. The DVD burners not duel layer
6. OVER PRICED!!!!!
Edit,
I just got done pricing the all the parts on newegg and it was only 1045$.

What I did was get a crappy Generic PC from my dads office, (AV Guy has large access to PC's new and old) and used my money that I banked up and got a new HD, 128MB Grfx Card, Pentium 4 processor, ram and a new motherboard all for 600 Bucks plus a bonus Graphics card came with a game...
