if you want a nice gaming computer you should build it yourself. it is actually very easy and it will be better that that one for the same price.

mobo $102 http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16813128345

case $55 http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16811129042

total $1020 before shipping

this computer would be alot faster than the other one for about the same price. if you have never built a computer you can post in the computer building thread and we can help you out more there.

That PC's got a few dodgy parts in it, especially the power supply. Krj's build will be much better.
