ha ha, honestly (sadly), it wasn't a joke. (i went to a friends house last night so didn't come online tilhalf an hour ago to the guy who said i wasn't responding)

a good amount of reviews said it could game and me being a complete noob to PC's, thought that it would actually last for a while.

thanks to the guy came up with the 290 build, something ican actually afford.

no if you all will excuse me...

I plan on starting PC gaming soon but instead of starting by building my own rig, i want to buy my own dirt cheap PC sothat i can buy right away, play right away, and upgrade later.

so, i found this PC, the cheapest on newegg

from the reviews, they said that it works decently for gaming so i'm wondering if it will work well for PC games (i really don't care about high settings or whatever they are).

if it is decent, what parts should i upgrade in the future?

First one was Honorific Barbarian in Small Arms

Soon after was escape from the sewers in Oblivion

In COD2, after unloading the jeep in one of the British missions, I was killed before even taking 2 steps and had to repeat the level from the beginning over 20 times

Also in COD2, at the Normandy landing, right after being brought back to my feet by Sgt. Randall, I was sniped immediately by the guys on the cliffs and had to repeat it 5 times. It wasn't very hard but having to watch that 2 minute explosion cutscene over and over again got to be pretty annoying
