It is refurbished ( Returned, Apparently the R at the end means that it was maintained at excellent quality)

this price is 1049$

Now on the dell site i customized one and it has -

Intel® Core™ i5-2300 (6MB Cache) Overclocked Turbo Boost to 3.3GHz
Genuine Windows® 7 Home Premium, 64Bit, English
8GB Dual Channel DDR3 at 1333MHz
Dual 1GB GDDR5 NVIDIA® GeForce® GT 545 - SLI Enabled
1TB (2x 500GB) SATA II (3Gb/s) 7,200RPM (2x 16MB Cache)
Integrated 7.1 Channel Audio
802.11n Wi-Fi and Bluetooth 2.1 EDR USB Combo Adapter
Single Drive: 24X CD/DVD burner (DVD+/-RW) w/double layer write capability

With this i also get 15 months of MCafee security

Price 1393$



Im thinking the Geeks.com one but what would you do?
 
Did I read that right, in that if you pay $300 more you get 15 months of McAfee Security? If that just means the antivirus software, I sure as hell wouldn't get that.

You could get more for your money if you went with cyberpower or ibuypower, if you're buying a full system. If you don't want to build your own, you could even go cheaper yet and order all the components and have a local shop assemble it for you.
