Nope. The FX 8120 is a bit of an inefficient slouch (gets mopped in benchmarks by i5)...and the GTX 660, while a decent card, is not powerful enough to "max" current titles at 1920x1080. If you were comfortable with spending 900.00 before, build your own PC...it will be MUCH more powerful. And think about all the fun youll have doing it!

LOL, dont have the time...sorry.

Read a quick guide on building PCs...youll see how simple it is, and how few parts you really need:

CPU
Motherboard
RAM
GPU
PSU
HDD/SSD
ODD (Optional)
Case


Youll kick ass, have fun dude!
