your welcome... i really think you are fine for your budget...


guys, yes he could get this, he could get that, but if he got everything that u guys told him to he would be all out of money...

really, i think were flexible enough with your budget for us to configure this for you, i really don't think we should be telling you to spend anymore money...

i know how it is... my dad planned on spening around $450 for his PC he ended up spending $700 because you can always get something better...

i say go in for the purchase

lets say it plain and simple... your computer will play oblivion fine and all those games FINE!!! sure there are tons of things you can do to make them play better (get an FX-60, a 7900GTX) but this will be the best FOR THE PRICE!!! sure there are a million things u can do to make the computer better! but not without changing the price...
