Pre-Built gaming system <$700

[LREM]

I am pretty ignorant when it comes to pc hardware, so I would greatly appreciate any input.

I'm looking for something that I can casually game on, nothin flashy, and I would really rather not build it myself.

I am on a pretty tight budget, around $700, and I don't even know if that's a realistic budget, so if anyone could fill me in, that'd be great.

I plan on playing mostly WoW and, I don't need to be playing on all ultra settings, medium settings would be just fine for me.

Lemme know if any more questions need to be answered, thanks in advance! 🙂

You can get a Dell Studio XPS 7100 with an Athlon II X4 630 and a 5770 for about $700. This will be without monitor though.

I would go with that.

Alright, thanks guys, I think I'm gonna go with this. For the monitor I was thinking:

Yep, that monitor should be fine.

Is the 3GB of RAM enough?

 

[mfenn]

It should be fine. It is apparently in 2 DIMMs (1.5GB DIMMs?!?!?), so you would easily be able to upgrade in the future.

Enough for what?

For Win7 and the general usage in OP, it should fine. But systems with 3GB (2x1GB and 2x512MB) are usually sold with a 32bit OS. Make sure you are getting the 64bit OS version.
