Did you already buy this, or just thinking about it?

Don't buy a system from cyberpowerpc or where ever that is from, you will get much more for your money if you do it yourself and you will learn a lot about your PC at the same time.

You can do better than that. Is your budget $850?

i really dont want to build it myself, and i like the warrenty the give with tech support. i appreciate ur advice, i know i mihg tbe spending a extra 100, but that ok, but is what im getting good for now, will graphics and speed be ok, will i have any issues playing wow or age of conan?

Look at this:
LG Black 22X (CAV) DVD+R 8X DVD+RW
Antec Three Hundred
MSI R4870-MD1G Radeon HD 4870 1GB
G.SKILL 4GB (2 x 2GB) 240-Pin DDR2 SDRAM DDR2 1066
Sunbeam CR-CCTF 120 mm Core-Contact Freezer CPU Cooler W/TX-2
Microsoft Windows Vista Home Premium SP1 64-bit and Western Digital Caviar Black WD6401AALS 640GB
AMD Phenom II X4 940 and GIGABYTE GA-MA790X-UD4P
OCZ Fatal1ty OCZ550FTY 550W and OCZ Gift - Mousepad and OCZ RALLY 2 4GB High Performance Dual Channel Flash Drive

Total: $876 with shipping included, then you get $35 MIR. This gives you better and higher quality parts than that cyberpower, and I bet that price they are quoting doesn't include $75 S&H. You get a Quad core CPU out of this and higher quality parts.

All of the parts have manufacturer warranties on them, and cyberpowerpc tech support is a joke, they just say they have it so they can charge you for it.

"MEMORY: 4GB (2GBx2) PC6400 DDR2/800 Dual Channel Memory (Corsair or Major Brand) "

major brand?
Like The Cheap Shoddy RAM Co in Zimbabwe?

Generally systems like that are built with the cheapest component that fits the description . Wow! 800 MHZ RAM with the worst timings ever !

Have you guessed yet? Im with xthekidx on this . Build your own . Its not hard .

If you really just want a pre built system you can go to compusa.com and get their refurb gateway fx 6000 gaming series for $200 less ($750) and it will blow that away. Its an i7 based system with a 4850 video card....in fact you could add another 4850 in crossfire on it and still be under what that other system is costing you.
