it's not bad for gaming, the processor can't be overclocked, it is a non-k version, so in the future you will be limited to just what you or swapping it out for an overclockable processor and will need a new motherboard if you want to overclock as well
motherboard is average
psu is rated, but no clue on the manufacture
16gb of ram is overkill unless you are running VM, but i guess it doesn't hurt, however ddr4 will be out soon
hard drive is above average, 7200 rpm is better than most prebuilts
don't know about the case + cooling
graphics card is average, 5/10, i don't think you can push too much at 1080p with it though, should run most if not all current games out
if the processor is not an issue for you, it's a good one though and can handle any game, just can't be overclocked, the graphics card can be swapped out if you need better performance because it is just average
also can't comment on the vendor, check their policies for returns/exchanges etc
but it's not a bad deal for most prebuilts -
The 650Ti will have a hard time getting decent FPS in modern games. especially recording. 3770 is good but your stuck with its stock speed. PSU is probably crap. Even though its 80+ bronze, the fact that they wont list the manufacturer, makes it crap. plus when you look at the cost of the parts in the system and then a 650 watt psu. So if you wanna upgrade later on you'll have to get a better psu. ram is good.
Its a decent system for the price but i would honestly build it yourself. With a budget of almost 1000 you could honestly build a good PC that will get great FPS in modern games and future games.
If you wanna upgrade the prebuilt PC later your gonna have to upgrade most of the parts in it, so you'll end up spending alot more money that just going with the self built PC. And have lesser performance During all this.
