So Im not very teksavvy and don't know whether or not purchasing a computer off ebay is a good idea.

Its between bidding for this or purchasing a new hp envy h8 from tigerdirect where it is 560 plus tax and only has i5, 8GB, and 1TB

So could I trust this computer to be good? Is it worth the gamble? The buyer has 95% possitive feedback.

Seems good for the price. Id replace the HP motherboard because theyre not good, and it comes with a ATI 7570 which isnt that great. I would upgrade to a GTX 760 or GTX 770 for the Video card.

thanks for your answer, as I said Im not very teksavvy so I have no Idea what the difference is in those lol. I play poker online and I am wanting to purchase this computer strictly for that so I just need it to be able to run up to 24tables at a time on 2 monitors and will also be downloading a decent amount of software on it so would the video card and motherboard still matter?
