How can it be so cheap with all the specs? I've been looking for a gaming pc and thought dell would do , but then saw this and thought , for this price it hast to be missing something. I can install XP for free btw , do gaming pc lack basic computing things?

Doesn't come w/monitor, cheap under powered RAM, cheap mobo, cheap case & PSU, bad sound, cheap spkrs & etc.

All you got is a good CPU. Everything else is cheap under powered shit that will suck the life & capability of that good CPU.

So basically , If you want an good gaming pc for a good price , you do loads of research and build your own from scratch?

Ya, unless you got tons of cash to blow you can always go alienware.

I always heard bad stuff about alianware. I think i'm just gona do research and build my own. I can't afford the best , I work at Mcdonals for 5.80 and hour 19 to 30 hours a week.Thanks for the tip , It looked to good for so little to be good , my bad.

I built my PC with all my parts from newegg.com

AMD Athlon 64 3200+ (300)
ASROCK 754 Mobo...very nice mobo, im speechless with 5.1 audio 8 usb ports (80)
Geforce4 MX440 64mb....I'll upgrade this later (40)
Raidmax 868 black case with 420 watt PSU and fans (40)
msi dvd-rom (20)
sony floppy drive (10)
80 gig harddrive (60)
512mb kingston RAM 3200 400mhz (80)

TOTAL: around 650 bucks

Come on, u cant beat that deal
buying something like that will leave you money left over to get a sweet video card or dvd-rw drive

Or just go with a athlon xp 2500+ barton and overclock the shit out of it with a good mobo....if you do that your whole pc will be under 500 dollers with a VERY good video card

Remember people, build your own PCs.....it is cheeper

Video card is very very bad, how could they call that a gaming PC? It's worse than an mx440
