Default [Quick] Tell me what you think

I have decided to purchase a new computer for gaming/photo editing software; such as Photoshop. Now I have had quite a few computers, both desktops and laptops and none of them really purposed for gaming. I know the basics and what is good and what is bad. When I came across this computer it really caught my eye and now I would like to know what everyone thinks.

- Pros & Cons?
- Is it worth the price?
- Why I should or should'nt buy it?

Well here it is:
