Don't buy that shit.
It's way too overpriced, the components used are really old i mean Pentium D, E8500...lol thats like 2006-2008 or so?

You can buy way better computers with better specs for the same price or cheaper if you put them together your self.
Like a I5 or something.
 
I suggest a site called iBuyPower, you can customize a very good computer for a very good price, thats where I got mine from and it works great
 
I mean what specific cards and processors should i be looking into. So far ive heard nothing but bad stuff and have bad experience with intel.

Also would it be better to buy a cheap desktop like cheap as possibly and buy better parts for it slowly overtime?
 
Intel is great, from my experience anyway.

Intel i5 or even i7 core processors are absolutely fantastic.

I have an ATI Radeon HD 4600 Series and it's absolutely awesome, with an affordable price.

I also have 4GB of DDR3 RAM. Look out for DDR3, or if not, DDR2. Also, I'd recommend that it is either Corsair, or if not Kingston will do, but it's usually more expensive.

I HIGHLY recommend you build this computer yourself by buying the raw parts, it's a lot easier than it looks and will save you big bucks. If you don't feel confident doing so, buy from www.newegg.com if you are from US/Canada/China or www.ebuyer.com if not.

Good luck! Let me know if you need any more assistance.

Yeah, case, mobo, RAM, power supply etc. It's always a considerable amount cheaper.
 
Im scared of getting parts that won't really match my board and also i don't use euro =o.

also about the video card i might spend a lil more for better proformance. Mind helping me search for the whole system specs on newegg? If so i would greatly appreciate it.

this might sound dumb but if im buying all this stuff do they come with wires? or do i have to buy them.
 
For the love of god, do NOT get a laptop. What a horrible suggestion.

Yes, they should come with all wires, the only other things you will need are:
Monitor
Mouse
Keyboard
Wireless USB Adapter (May or may not need one, I did)

I'm not too confident with choosing parts either if I'm honest, someone helped me when I was building mine. However, building it is not very hard at all, especially if you have someone to help you if necessary (I had a friend here who was on web cam the whole time).
 
I know how to build it :) just selecting the parts :( well can you help see if my parts are compatible?

and i will never use a laptop again for gaming im using a inspirion 1545 and i hate it.
