    I think I have my choice narrowed down to this model. I just received the Circuit City circular and its onsale for 1349.99 after rebates. It seems it has everything I could possibly want. The only thing that worries me is the nvidia go7600. I like to game every now and then. The games I personally play are RPG"S (Titan's Quest, Silverfall ect.). I was hoping someone has some real life experience with this machine and games. Thanks for reading.

    Well ive played racing games like NFS MW and carbon as well as tried out supreme commander and farcry. They play fine depending on the resolution really, so you can run them on medium to high quite fine.
