Hi, all,
With help from Tom's Hardware, I just bought myself a gaming rig that I'm thrilled with.
I think my sister-in-law saw how giddily happy I was and wants me to buy a computer for my nephews. I have a budget of $2000.
I'm looking at a CyberPower with the following specs
Keeping them at 1080p feels right. I want a computer that will last them for five years and that will allow them to play whatever games they would like. Their father passed away 5 years ago and he loved gaming, so it has a symbolic aspect. I'm super excited for them to have a computer that I can play games with them over the internet on.

Questions:
- Does this seem like a pretty good deal?
- Any "gotchas" I should know about?
- Would this be pretty upgradeable in the future? I felt like I couldn't upgrade my old Dell, and I didn't like it.
- Any other boxes I should look at?
