Default Computer Purchasing Question.

Okay, due to a new job with much higher pay than my last one I can now afford a computer within a few weeks. I would really like to get one of my own instead of the person who I live with for my own games, music etc. etc. So I was walking around wal-mart and for ----s and giggles decided to check out the computers. I decided I didn't want a dell right off the bat because all of them have intel integrated graphics chips and etc. So then I came upon this acer, and here are the specs which I have to say is pretty impressive for something from wal-mart

AMD Athlon II X2 255 Dual-Core Processor (2M Cache, 3.1 GHz, 4000 MHz System Bus)

4GB DDR3 Memory

1 TB SATA Hard Drive

DVD+/- RW Super Multi Format Dual Layer

Ports/ Connectors (9 USB, HDMI, and VGA)

Gigabit Ethernet LAN

High Definition Audio

Nvidia Geforce 9200 Graphics Card

and a Multi-in-1 card reader.

Now to me this sounds like one good computer for the games I'd like to run (SH4, 5, BF2, Roller Coaster Tycoon 3, etc etc.) But I'm not sure which is why I have come to ask your opinion. If Acers happen to be just bad computers or whatever else I should be looking out for.

The Model Number is AX3400G-U4802 I believe.

Thanks Guys!!

Casey
