Is this a Good Desktop?

[Robin]

I want to buy a desktop and I'm not to good with listing off specs, so I'm just going to post the BestBuy site. I'm also not good with research, but I know I want to be able to play PlanetSide 2 on this desktop at a great pace. If this isn't the best I could get for my buck please give me a site or specs for it. (P.S. $830 is my max maybe a bit over. Don't tell me about making a computer.) Thank you even if ypu didn't help.

are you going to post the link?

[_I_]

look for an i5 with a gtx x60+ or r9 270+ gpu

if it has no dedicated gpu, its not for gaming
and amd cpus can be weak for most games

are you near a microcenter?

fx6300 and gt640 seem a bit weak at that price. If you are uncomfortable with the idea of building your own PC, the asus _I_ posted is definitely better.

[SoulreaperArg]

i would pref a bigger cpu like fc8xxx and a better video card...

[Air]

Just so you know, Best Buy isn't the best place to look for gaming PCs.

[_I_]

i5s beat fx8000s in most games

[Chocolate]

No.

[Robin]

Is one of these good?

http://www.asus.com/us/Desktops/M32BF/overview/
Or just any of these

the i5/i7 will be fine as long as it has a good gpu, gtx x60+ or r9 card
amd apu will be weak

:P make a computer.

It's terrible, if you buy it you get what you deserve. Biggest problem is the GPU, GTX 640 is not even entry level gaming. It's like mid-level office. Other problems include a PSU that probably won't run a better GPU and other poor quality parts that will cause other problems with upgrade or overclocking or whatever else.

Build your own and get what you deserve for doing a bit of simple work instead. Building a PC is simple like doing a lego set.

FX 6300 & R9 270X (R9 280 Temporary) build for gaming
http://pcpartpicker.com/user/Rove/saved/9tWJ7P
Base Total: $633.45
Promo Discounts: -$18.99
Mail-in Rebates: -$115.00
Total: $499.46
+$100~ for Windows 8.1 64 bit

That will kick it's butt.

OR if you are really so set on a prebuilt get something that has got at minimum:
*4 core or more 3.2 GHz or higher CPU with 4MB of cache or more.
* GTX 750 ti or R7 250X or a even better card with more GFLOPS. GTX 760 or R9 270 or higher would really be the ideal while the first to I mentioned are bare-bottom-minimum-do-not-go-below-or-else-suffer-bad until you upgrade.
*8GB of RAM or higher
*1TB HDD or higher, SSD optional
*PSU that can support aall this which would be 500W or greater with a GTX 760 or R9 270.

Here's some sites
http://www.cyberpowerpc.com/system/AMD_Six_Core_Configurator
http://www.ibuypower.com/Site/AMD_APU

You can *probably* even afford a Alienware with the bare minimum specs for that, either the Alpha or the X51. I don't recommend either but they'd be better than the PC you linked.
