VISION Premium Barebone PC - MSI 785GM-P45 Motherboard, AMD Athlon II X4 635 Quad Core CPU, ATI Radeon HD 5450 1GB, Cooler Master Elite 310 Mid-Tower Case, 350 Watt Power Supply

Gaming on the budget

I have been running this setup with a ATI Radeon 5500HD video card, 1TB drive and 4 gigs of system memory for a better part of 4 years and it has run flawlessly with no issues. Windows 7 64bit runs smooth and will run any gaming title I install on it with out issue. Upgrading the memory to 8 gigs, ATI R7 GPU and maybe a 6 core CPU if I can find one that will run on the MSI motherboard.

great for my buck

i maxed mem. dropped old gf 9800gt vidio in and 500 gb sata hd. olny issue was power supply burnt up in few months but was pushing it with duel monitors, put in 650 and np since. pwr is only reason for the 4 star

Awesome for any gamer

For those of you how want to game, this computer setup is great. The only reason I put a 4 for features is because it didn't come with an s-video cord output, but i knew that going in.

Good for the price

Replacing an old outdated computer(1.6 Ghz eMachines) And boy was this a good buy. Bought 4GB Kingston Memory, 500GB hard drive, and an ASUS dvd burner. Everything under 500$ Boy am i pleased with the set up. I do agree the fan does make some noise, but nothing too major. I play music the majority of the day, so it doesn't annoy me at all. I'm still using the same PSU, but it's a simple upgrade in which i will fix later on.

Excellent but

The system is a screamer with all the cpu, memory and graphics that I will need for quite a while. The only problem is the power supply. The power is inadequate and the fan is LOUD. I ordered a 650 watt with a larger fan that should improve things quite a bit.
