Wondering if this is a decent gaming pc?

Perhaps... However, you'd be much better off simply building your own PC and not having to pay for the gimmicks of a company like that.
Alright ill probably end up going that route because thats what im hearing from everyone. Also, i found this (http://www.tigerdirect.com/applications/SearchTools/item-details.asp?EdpNo=7433425&CatId=114) on the same site i was wondering if i did buy a pre-built which one i would be better off with? Because it seems like a pretty good deal.
For a cheap gaming build, I would suggest;
Fx-6300 cpu $129.99
sapphire radeon hd 7850 graphics card $154.99 (comes with 3 free games, Bioschock Infinite, Tomb Raider 2013, Far Cry 3 Blood Dragon)
970a-g46 motherboard $79.94
Kingston hyperx black ram, 8gb (2x4gb) $59.99 and are lower profile aluminum casing so you have space for big air coolers.
Then you could add any case/hdd/sdd/ cd dvd blu ray drive/power supply/cpu heatsink and still have it be cheaper than the link you posted.
Also, Windows 8 has a lot of compatibility issues with Anti-virus software and plenty of other useful programs. I'd stick with Windows 7 if I were you, unless you have a touchscreen monitor or something.

The Dell has a much better processor, but a much worse GPU. Also, I would NEVER buy a Dell computer, as they have always been terrible.
