I am a big gamer and I am starting as a Computer Science/Computer Forensics Major In two months. I want to have something that is top of the line but also has room to improve. Here is the break down of what I found. I think I can get this for $900 is it a good deal?

The specifications are:

Intel extreme motherboard DP45SG that allows overclocking

Intel core 2 quad 2.5 Ghz

8Gb RAM

Two 1GB ati HD radoen video cards for a total of 2gb video ram and up to 4 monitor support

500gb hard drive

850 watt atx power supply

Black widow gaming case

6 fans to keep your system running cool.

HD support

Surround sound capable


It sounds like a very good deal from what I have researched about the products.

No, it doesn't, you can build one for cheaper. I'm assuming this is a dell. BTW memory of a graphics card means almost nothing. Unless you know what type of graphics card you have, it could be a very low end card with 1 GB memory. Memory is not the reference point for graphics cards.
