THANKS IN ADVANCE! I'm thinking about upgrading to a better computer after the summer. I am planning on purchasing the ENVY Phoenix Desktop for about $1,110. I don't know much about computers, because i got into gaming PCs about 4 years ago. I need some help on deciding if this is a good enough rig. Games i would be playing are Battlefield 4, Skyrim, Counter Strike, and Call of Duty. Bellow are the Product features, and ill post the URL from the website:
