I'm going to buy a new pc wednesday (finally upgrading from my pentium 4). I plan to buy one at best buy. After doing some comparisons ive narrowed it down to 2 computers. First of all, ram and graphics is a big deal to me. Im want 6 to 8 gigs and ATI or Nvidia would both do fine. The only games i plan to play is the orange box(which i know would run fine on either of these), Halo 2 PC, and I was hoping Crysis but I havent looked up the system requirements for it.

I need to know which PC would be better for me. I don't need to spend more than $1,100 so if anyone has any other suggestions in that price range, i would greatly appreciate it

You do realise that you wont get any performance increase above 2GB's of RAM in 9/10 games!

If you must get a pre-built:

At least it has a fairly decent video-card.
