Poor choice for a gaming PC. The main problem is it's a small form factor unit with weak integrated video. There is an AGP slot for upgrading, but you MUST use a low profile video card & that will seriously limit your choices. Also, high powered gaming cards need a decent power supply & I highly doubt that PC has one...& upgrading it will be difficult due to the small form factor case.
