The PC (Personal Computer) is a highly configurable and upgradable gaming platform that, among home systems, sports the widest variety of control methods, largest library of games, and cutting edge graphics and sound capabilities.
You should plan to put out a grand for most of the pre-built gaming pcs that you can get from manufacturer sites. It's much cheaper to build it yourself so I'd advise you to look into that first.
@stoodspoon: You're gonna have an awful time finding a well priced pre-built gaming PC, I learned that the hard way. But if you MUST buy it pre-built, buy this and then upgrade the graphics chip to something like this, the integrated graphics chip is almost literally worthless unless all you want to play is Half Life 2 (that is literally as technically advanced as you can get with this chip)
@stoodspoon: You can build a solid gaming PC for that much but you will need to build it yourself. I promise it's way easier than it may seem. There are plenty of guides that will walk you through all the steps as well.
