im pretty sure that the 2nd one would be the best. because most games do best with 1 gig of memory even though halo's minimum ram is 128. 2nd should be the better buy.

Look at the dimentions of the case+hd. Anyway, so far I have tried to custom make computers but the parts turn out to be more than the emachine, which has the exact same stuff in it(only not the gfx card). WHAT GFX CARD DO YOU GUYS SUGGEST THAT WILL RUN HALO WELL?
I really have no idea what video card I should buy....can anyone tell me what a good video card is for Halo? Halo is really the only game I have so if it's only good for Halo(I heard some cards are like that XD) then I don't care.
I heard that the ATI Radeon Xpress 200 was good for Halo(from the opinions and ratings of it) but the name sounds out-dated, I could be wrong but I would like to be sure

get a 128. Its not overwhelming in cost but works fine.
