Hi I'm looking to buy a gaming computer thats within my $1100-$1200 budget. What do you guys recommend? I just need the PC, i have the monitor,etc.

So far this computer has my attention.

The only thing is that i prefer a Intel based processor over AMD, but I guess theres not much difference right?

Thanks in advance.

Hey with your budget you can get a very good gaming system in dell, I have read a deal says that they are having a $300 off Inspiron Desktop $999 or more:

Maybe you can choose your pc there. And personally I think the intel is more promising than the AMD in the long run.

I've considered getting a Inspiron from Dell, but the problem is their video card upgrade only goes up to a 256MB NVIDIA 8600GT. I guess i'm trying to aim for a 8800. Furthermore, all the quad-core based ones seem to force you to buy a monitor with it which I don't need.
I guess my search continues as the deal I posted is sold out =[.
