Looking for a gaming desktop under $500. (Not including a monitor/keyboard/mouse.) I looking buy a pre built one, but building one would be fine. PS, I primarily play LotRO. Any ideas?

By the way, was looking at http://configure.us.dell.com/dellstore/config.aspx?oc=dpcwxn1&model_id=alienware-x51&c=us&l=en&s=dhs&cs=19. A little over budget, but worth it?

I have found this about the computer you linked.

It is said that the GT 545 can run LotRO on high so yes it would work if.

PS; Alienware i way over priced nut if you want pre builds thats id what you get. If you can build your own then here:
