Sounds like a freaking sweet deal imo... but then again I'm not that up with the technology myself... I need a new graphics card, upgrade ram and power supply...

[Ratty.AE]

does that include operating system ?

[calm_as]

Sorry Lambo I'm not up to the latest stuff...

Need to find out which is best i5 or i7... that first one sounded the best to me...

I prefer Nvidia video but either works just as well... but I have noticed the Beta of BFBC2 was definitely move Nvidia compatible which tells me the Dev's where using Nvidia to developed the game.

make sure you get the operating system with the computer quote though.

[infi]

that will cain Lambo.  Bigest issue is if you want a DX11 grpahics card or not.

[HellCat]

Lambo if you want DirectX 11 you'll need obviously Window's 7, but currently the only cards in the market place that are compatable for DirectX 11 are the ATI cards... 5750, 5770, 5850, 5870 & 5950 i think are the models...

Yeh im not sure if it has the operating system included ill have to find out atm im just kicking tyres

Now that's a awesome deal for the price. My advice... boost that power supply... I run a larger power supply for a 8800 GTS 512mb graphics card...
