Your thoughts on this rig? Or do you think I could build a better gaming pc off newegg for $800?
 
id builld one from newegg, less chance of any funny business like ebay. you could go with a $200ish monitor which would get you a 19' monitor and $600 build suggestions can be found all over the general hardware subforum
 
Thats not a bad price, but I, too, would be weary about buying a system off of eBay. You could build a similar performing rig but it would cost you a bit more. A good gaming build for $800 WITH monitor is stretching it.
 
I would not trust ebay. At least at newegg you will be dealing with new parts and full warranties.
