Wow,
Quad core and 3gig of ram, that's pretty good for the price. But i don't think it would work as a gaming machine because it doesn't come with dedicated graphic's and cache's and ram speed's look a little bit slow. But if your not a gamer this would be a good choice. Also not intel are bringing out new cpu's on the 22nd so you could wait till then but they may put the price up.
