and how much does this cost?
for gaming, yeah it’s alwright but if the price is over ~650 it’s not worth it.

No way I would swap my computer for it. At least I did get a full version of Microsoft Office 2010
And a 1.5TB hard drive and a 1TB external HDD. Oh, It’s good a little fancy for me.

Reduce system RAM from 8gb to 4gb, and upgrade the graphics card from Radeon HD 6850 to 6870. That would boost your in-game fps without affecting price. Otherwise quite nice for an AMD system.
I’d compare the total cost of your build against a Core i5 2400/LGA155 build (with the same options) which is much faster. If the prices are close, go with Intel.
