That sounds like a really good deal to be honest. Not too sure about the processor, but the rest of the configuration is actually really good. 2GB of RAM + 512 8800GT sounds like a real blockbuster for gaming.
My verdict? Good deal for the price. :yes:
What about this one?:

It's almost the same thing, and to be honest I would go for the second one due to a reason: 2x160GB, AFAIK, is faster than 2x320, even in RAID 0. All depends now on the needs of your space storage.
Unless you're a total performance whore, I'd skip RAID 0. Yeah, you should get a boost on disk thruput, but if either drive ever goes bad you lose all data on both drives. Doesn't really seem like it's worth it to me. :shrug:
Remember kids, either way you do it, backup like it was the last day you will see computers until 1 day before your death. :yes:
And don't learn this the hard way. I did, and it wasn't pleasant.Quote:
