I am about to pull the trigger, please help. And is this in the right forum?
 
This is the right forum, but I can't really tell if this is a good deal for you unless you clarify what you are wanting the machine for.... That's what the stickied questions are for.
 
General computing, light-moderate FPS gaming @ 1680x1050. I will be getting a discreet GPU, which brings up an entirely new questions :) Something around ~$100. I have been out of the scene for a while but my last setup was a Core i5, 8GB Ram, GeForce GTX 460 1GB.
 
Not a good deal at all. Not a good deal at all:
- Outdated and relatively slow CPU for gaming
- Shitty PSU
- Case doesn't come with free shipping
- built-in GPU worse than the GTX 460 you use to have.
 
Wow, well thanks for your honest, straight foward answer Danny. I knew it wasn't going to be as fast as the other rig, but I just wanted something cheap to mess around on, but I think i will pass !
