    It doesn't have a dedicated GPU, so it'll run games like utter crap.
    Keyboard, is fine. could use just a $10 and do fine.

    Speakers, I have the 2.1 set of them, they sound okay.

    Mouse, the naga is good, I've used one. I also reccommend the Logitech G500. quite a good mouse.

    Ive heard TB's break a lot, but itsd your choice for headsets, i use steelseries siberia v2, and they sound and feel wonderful.

    Noodles nailed it on the pc. The processor isn't great either. If you wanna post a budget I'd give you something I'd pick.

    If you're willing to build, it'll be better.

    Processor will do fine for a budgetish build, which I'm assuming what his going for.

    If it said what PSU it was using, I'd just recommend putting a 6770 in it. /:

    Also, going through that store on ebay with 'gaming' pcs. I lol'd so much. they all have 9500s pretty much, which were lowend cards like 4years back...

    /end thought;
    Build your own.

    The computer is fine, everything else is up to you. I'm personally a bit of a chince, so I buy mid-range everything (not always the cheapest stuff since cheap usually means shitty quality). For instance, I got a pair of USB Nexxtech speakers for like $25 or something, and the sound is terrific.

    You will, however, need to fork out an additional 100-200$ for a decent graphics card to be able to qualify this as a gaming machine.

    When you do buy your card, make sure your power supply is good enough. Some high-end cards could need up to 450-500W power supplies.

    I power supply is around that range. I can probably find a decent card that ranges around 50-100$ :)

    Some highend cards need atleast 650w actually blupig. You're forgetting to account, CPU, harddrives, fans, etc use a decent bit of W too.

    I advise getting no less the a 600W powersupply.

    For a 'decent' card, you're going to want at least $100-150

    Nvidia GTX 560 TI, AMD 6950 1gig cards IMO.


    To the above poster, 1gig of vram is fine unless you're running more then 1080p.

    Also, make sure to get a 650w(will do fine) Corsair, Seasonic, SIlverstone, Antec(IMO the best brands) PSU.

    If you want a cheaper GPU, the normal 560(non TI), 6770, and 6850 are good too.

    Eh, I may have high standards, but I wouldn't consider that a great gaming computer. A 6770 will play most games at med-high settings, but it won't max out many modern games at 1080p with good FPS. The CPU is also kind of a bottleneck IMO. You won't get a very good overclock out of that chip either. I'd be incredibly surprised if you squeezed 4.0GHz out of it, which is kinda pathetic in comparison to Sandy Bridge chips. Just my opinion.
