It is a prebuilt from HP for $600

Pretty much everything you want, 2gb extra of memory, tv tuner the videocard is about the same speed as a gts450 (the gts450 is a little bit faster and dx11 but not much faster.)

If you are going to overclock then build it yourself. But I am just saying that HP is a good deal.

That is a good deal indeed, much cheaper than building from the ground up. You can even do 1 TB in RAID 0 for $10 more.

But I wonder what manufacturers they use for HDD and RAM... probably homemade I guess. I prefer WD and Samsung for HDD, but I believe hp would be fine. Not so sure about the hp RAM though.

Aside from that, pre-installed Norton... :dead: My current computer come with that pre-installed and it was quite annoying. It was not easy to uninstall cleanly either. I had to clean-install windows to completely get rid of it.
