I can't find anything of similar quality for cheaper. This PC is from www.ecollegepc.com, which has a 4000+ positive feedback rating on eBay. I will use this strictly for gaming, such as Sims2, Half Life 2, World of Warcraft, etc etc... is this a good system for such gaming or do I need to change/add anything and also is this a good price? Thanks.

what brand dvd drive?
what brand memory? or is Ultra Fast the brand? if thats the case, ...lame.
why are you getting a modem and ethernet adapter?
what monitor is included? or is there one?
everything else doesnt look to bad. THe price is about right, but I have no doubt the same or better components could be had for much cheaper from other places. But you're paying for the convienence of it done and ready out of the box. So its not bad. Should be a good machine for gaming.
