hey, i saw at walmart there's a new e-machine that's freaking A W E S O M E, it doesnt come w/ a monitor though. its:
6gb ram
2.5 ghz dual core processor amd something
750 gb hdd
windows 7 premium
6 usb ports and..
ITS ONLY $400 BUCKS DUDE. check it out,, it has an average video card as well though. its on emachines website it'll say "only at walmart"

i'll give it a check but just in case what would be a good graphics card for it.?

it doesn't come with a graphics card and has the same chipset as my pc. but it does have other cool stuff.

it comes w/ this:NVIDIA GeForce 6150 SE graphics
thought that was the graphics card. (sorry dont know much bout "cards"). or is it the chipset lol. my computer has: mobil intel series 4 chipset family %intel media graphics accelerator for graphics. so im assuming it doesnt have a graphics card either huh? that sux.
i see some guy bought this system and upgraded it w/ this graphics card:(he's good w/ this stuff seems like)EVGA nVidia GeForce [1G] 9500GT Graphics Card

Well Video card are mostly ATI Radeon 4870 recommend for your PC desktop with Good Power Supply 600Watts or Above.ATI graphic card is good speed and performance.
You should know Nvidia Video Card is pretty slow speed with Combination of AMD processor (CPU).That's the fact...Buddy..
