It's not super amazing, but it's nothing to laugh at. I have a similar computer and it does everything I want it to. If you're a gamer, just upgrade the video card to like a 7600GT and add another gig of RAM and it should handle most modern games with ease, (That's what I did to my computer)

What Price?

Your paying for a 24 inch monitor, the computer is so so. maybe around $300 for the computer the rest for the monitor. And it seems to be loaded with crap-ware.
