I wanted to know if if you guys think it's worth it
here are the specs:

This is all built for me as well.

I would not buy an AM3+ system at this point. Either go intel or wait for the new ryzen amd cpu's to come out.

Nothing wrong with buying prebuilt and the Australian prices are ridiculous but still this is not a good machine. Wait for the new AMD cpus coming soon or build on Intel with at least a quad core CPU.

Kind of expensive, even for Australia. And old. Also cases with PSUs are almost certainly bad news.
