Its ok,The CPU is a good one but not the k version so if you want to overclocking it may be 'tricky' also the GFX card is mid range but it'll run games in medium stettings so you may want to ditch that If you want it for gaming I think its a little overpriced.
Also the PSU's in these prebuilds are as much use as a chocolate fireguard!
It doesnt relly look a really good deal but whatever
This would have been my suggestion
http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16819115072 -> i5 2500Khttp://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16813130622 -> MSI Z68A-GD55http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16820233180 -> Corsair Vengeance 8gbhttp://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16814125401 -> Gigabyte GTX 560Ti 1Gbhttp://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16822152185&Tpk=samsung%20spinpoint%20f3 -> Samsung Spinpoint F3 1TBhttp://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16817139020&Tpk=corsair%20tx%20650 -> Corsair TX650
Now this is a total of roughly 880$ + OS + case it will be proly little over your current setups cost now you could get a little cheaper mobo and add a little more juice to the PSU and the hard drive prices are insane so if you have any left from the previous biuld use that till prices lower, and you get yourself a rig that can beat that prebiult any day of the week.

That is the pc that I bought and posted about it, and it is the best/fastest/most powerful pc that I have ever used. I bought it for $799.99 and it is worth it for that price, but for $949.99 that it is going for now you would be able to build a pc cheaper even with similar parts. If you can get it for the same price that I had paid or less than yes get it I think that you would be happy, because I know I am.

you paid $800 for it, let me try and build something for $800 and see if ti works.
It's alright I guess; the GPU is a bit underpowered though - an i5 and a 6870 would have been a much better choice (any idea why prebuilts are always CPU-heavy?)
