Hard drive - 640GB 7200 rpm SATA 3Gb/s hard drive from 500GB

Graphics card - 512MB ATI Radeon HD 4350 [DVI, HDMI, VGA adapter]

Primary optical drive - LightScribe 16X max. DVD+/-R/RW SuperMulti drive

Well, reasonably powerful for processing work, but completely unable to play games. As long as you have no interest in gaming, it's not a bad system, though 8GB of RAM is completely pointless.

bugzy, edit your sig to conform to forum specs ASAP. yours is 320x149 pixels & 1 line of text.
4. If you want to use both text and image in your signature the image should not be more than 500 pixels wide and 100 pixels tall, and you can use up to three lines of text.

Well, that depends where you're buying the PC from, what the PC's case and power supply will allow and what your budget is.
