Hello EveryBOdy
Please guys i would love that i get you opinion on which one of these PCs is better for gaming or at least will be better in the future when i get more $$ to get upgrade it. I’m going to list the different types of computers which are within my budget 700 to $900. and if someone can tell me which one will be the best.
1st Pavilion m7330n TV Minitower
AMD Athlon 64 X2 4200+ 2.2GHz Processor, 1GB RAM, 250GB Hard Drive, 16X DVD+/-RW and DVD Drives, Windows XP Media Center 2005 PCI Express x16 Video Card ATI Radeon xpress 200IGP2nd Choice Pavilion m7360n TV Minitower
Intel Pentium D Processor 920, 2.8GHz, 2GB RAM, 300GB Hard Drive, 16X DVD+/-RW and DVD Drives, Windows XP Media Center 2005 PCI express x16 Video Card:Nvidia Geforce 6200SE3rd Choice Gateway PC GT5032
AMD Athlon 64 x2 4200+ 250 GB hard drive, 1024 MB Ram Nvidia Geforce 6100 PCI express x16Also if someone can clarify for me this few points. I heard that Amd is better then Pentium but the first choice has 2.2 GHZ processor speed but the second one which is Pentium D processor 920 has 2.8 giga speed processor. None of the retail store I looked at had anything faster then 2.2 Giga for AMD but some Pentium PCs were as much as 3.8 Giga. My question is does Amd outperform Pentium when both have the same speed or that a 2.2 amd giga speed processor is better then a 3.2 pentium processor.Or the AMD 4200+ is like 4.2 giga speed.
Also i dont want to ignore the video card which is very important which of these 3 video card is the best? ATI Radeon xpress 200IGP or Nvidia Geforce 6200SE or Nvidia Geforce 6100I will appreciate if any one can tell me which computer I should get based on the better processor, Video Card and brand name
Thank You in Advance

If you are serious about getting a gaming rig, avoid propietary systems from OEM's like Compaq, HP and co, because you'll end up short and unhappy.
Specialty builders like CyberPower offers better and equally affordable alternative to those guys, not forgetting you configure it to your content and they are upgradable too.

To add to that, each of those systems are not good gamers. The graphics cards suck in all three.
Corn chips are no place for a mighty warrior!

AGREE AGREE! Don't waste your money with these guys if you're wanting to game. Take Sabertooths recommendations and go to www.cyberpowersystem.com
As for you AMD questions.....
