    Yes, specs look nice for the price you paying.
    Although if you need a better one, just assemble one as per your needs.

    Looks great for it's price, however if you want to use if for gaming or other graphic heavy things i wouldnt even go near it: Intel® HD Graphics 2000

    this. if you dropped around $150 on a Nvidia 450 GTIx on top it would make a decent gaming rig. However if you only intend to use it for internet/office tasks, i5 or 8gp ram aren't necessary.

    I agree with bigmedium. Unless you need gaming graphics, it's a good computer, and it's certainly worth the price. (Gateway is owned by Acer, and puts out a quality product.) That CPU and 16GB of RAM (you can expand it from 8 to 16) will keep you going for many years. Throw in an nVidia 9800 (under $70), and you have pretty good graphics too.

    Yeah, it's nice for it's price. The specs are very nice. I am actually looking into purchasing this computer for myself even.

    Apart from being a bit of an unbalanced specification, it is an excellent price. Just add a GPU as mentioned above and you'll have yourself a powerful, yet affordable, computer.

    Specs are quite good, but you will need a good vga in order to play new games. Also this pc will have windows preinstalled, so i would buy a pc without OS and install Windows by myself :p
