Anyone know the full specs to this PC?

Pre-built ones resold by department stores are generally unreliable. It looks like it probably uses generic peripherals, and doesn't tell who makes the other components. It might be a pretty good computer for a year or so, but you never know when the parts will fail. I really don't like how they don't tell you who makes the power supply, and there's not even a mention of one. Can you call them and ask what exactly is in the computer and get full specs?
 
If you could, you should build it yerself...its relatively easy, and you get Much better parts for your money.. :D
 
Demi is right, it will play the new games...and some on high(MAXED)...so its decent for the price..I built mine (sig) around the same price, minus other luxuries... :D

Hello, so i was browsing PC's on walmart, Found a decent one provided buy Ibuypower. But from what i see the walmart does not give out all the info, or does it?

Anyways here is a link to it

http://www.walmart.com/ip/iBuypower-811121015305/15746984

Does anyone know if it does and if so what motherboard is in it? Does it seem like a good gaming computer?

Of course you could build a cheaper computer. However, if you buy from Walmart, you will get a nice warranty, and a cheaply priced extended parts and labor warranty.

Under the specs for the computer on walmart's site, there's a link to the manufacturers specs right below it lolz but here, I'll give it to you here:

That's not a terrible deal, quite nice actually. That computer would run anything currently, and run almost any game on highest settings. So yes, it is a nice gaming computer. As for the motherboard, from what I remember, iBupower usually sides with Asus. As for the power supply, it probably will be some random brand you've never heard of, however, it's warrantied, so w/e.

Walmart - 1 year warranty

If you build it yourself:

CPU - 3 year warranty
Memory - Lifetime warranty
Motherboard - 1-3 year warranty
PSU - 1-7 year warranty
Video card - 1-lifetime warranty

In short - better warranty building it yourself

As well as better warranty, you get much higher quality components, and if you haven't done it before, you learn a lot.

The only positive to a pre-built computer is labour, but to get a higher quality system, at a better price and learn a lot, it is worth it for the time

I agree. But we know who pre-builts are well, built for.
 
Thanx for the replys guys!

Yea i know build-yourself computers really is the best bang for the buck. But atm i got little to no Computer knowledge, Only hardware related installations i successfully accomplished were putting in ram and a graphics card =p

I'm just mainly looking for a not to expensive, Already built gaming rig so i can play some games. Probably later down the road ill build one or well...try to

As long as this computer can play nearly all current games on the lowest settings with no lag im good with that, I mainly play with my online friends or strangers really, I'm not into graphics much, As long as i can play with no lag and with people thats all i care for in gaming xD
