The new HP machine, questions!

I am looking at this PC.

http://www.bestbuy.com/site/olspage....=1211587312116

After my Dell XPS laptop fried yesterday

I am a pretty big gamer, mainly play games like Star Wars Empire at war, and recently picked up age of conan, age of conan ran OK on my older dell xps, had a crap 7400 go force, this one has a 9300 nvidea, idk how much better than is but I am guessing it is better, also has 4 gigs of ram instead of my other dell which had 2 gig, will it be bale to run aoc decently atleast? Also, all and all how well is the new HP machine?

You could probably build better for that price.

O yea I know I definitely could, but I just like the sleek design and how it looks plus the touch.

Strange. It's like it has all the bad aspects of a laptop, and none of the good ones ....

if it was built into say a 48 inch LCD TV it would be a great HTPC. hang it on the wall connect everything and away you go.
