In reading many many reviews online and after reading the specs, I decided to try the Gateway FX! And I am glad that I did!! It is super fast and the components are great for the price paid!! The exact same specs come on the dell but it only has a 360 watt power supply so the 500 in this one gives me leg room. Played Fallout 3 at "UltraHigh" setting with no problem or lag or even heat. I have 3 Corsair 2gig sticks on the way and then it will be even faster! Buy it. You wont be sorry. (unless you get that one in a hundred that comes with a glitch, then you just use the awesome return policy and get a new one!)

I got this PC about a week ago from best buys came with a 19" monitor, All in one printer. all for $1160 very satisfied with this. I'm a pretty hardcore gamer so i had to upgrade. I added another 3GB DDR3 Corsair. replaced the power supply with a 750 Watt PSU Corsair. and added a second ATI HD 4850 for the crossfire. I have had no problems what so ever with.
just need to wait for the blu ray drives to drop down in price so i can slap one on it. ^^

This is my 2nd Gateway. Liked the 1st, so on to the 2nd. Wanted a desktop which could be more than I needed: more RAM, more storage (750g)etc. Only one drawback: the tower top opening for camera cards & USB & sister drawer on front of desktop face would not open initially. When I finally got them to miraculously open...they do not want to latch. So, I leave them open. Other than that, I highly recommend this model, which I'm sure at the time I type this is now officially a dinosaur. DGB
