In addition to that i do not know too much about computers so plz give me some fee back on this...

CPU AMD Athlon 64 X2 3800+ Dual Core Processor
Motherboard Socket AM2 Motherboard
Memory 512MB DDR2-667
Optical Drive 16X DVD-Writer
Hard Drive 250GB Hard Drive
Video ATI RADEON X800XL 256MB GDDR3 PCI-Express
Audio Integrated 5.1 Audio
Network Integrated 10/100 LAN

The price is 599 CDN without OS ...

Quite good, but you realy need extra 512MB ram, tell to them to put extra 512ram. It should cost about 60CAD dollars.

ya at least 1GB of ram. Also, get a better PSU. The generic ones won't be able to handle your system.
