Professional Opinion Needed on Gaming Computer

[Atlandrew]

I am looking for a gaming computer(preferably to run FSX) and someone offered me a custom PC(specs below) for $600 with the monitor. Is this a good deal?


AMD 2.70GHz Dual Core Processor
4GB DDR2 800 Ram/Memory
160GB Sata2 Hard Drive
DVD R/W CD/DVD Burner
Motherboard With DVI and VGA Monitor output on board
ATI Radeon 3850 512MB Graphics Card with dual DVI outputs
Windows XP SP3 with Media Center
MS Office 2007
Nero Ultra Burning Software
Also have a Samsung 22" 2ms LCD Widescreen Monitor to go with this computer

Any help would be greatly appreciated.

You couldn't build it new for that, as long as the Office is not a "Trial" version
and make sure the Monitor comes with it.

Yes, that is an good deal:good:

You would be running about 700$+ or so with the monitor, plus the office 2007, tha adds another 100$, like Bodaggit23 said above make sure it isn't the trial version. But i would go for it.

BUT: make sure that it is all working order and such. GL w/ the purchase.

Is it new or second hand?

What is motherboard and CPU have it got?
Make sure it is not socket 939 with AGP slot...

You can build a similar spec. PC with 600, I personally will go for a new one with upgradability...
