Assuming your primary use of the PC is gaming, you only need 8gb of ram. Also looking into a better graphics card would be ideal, and a reliable power supply.

Be careful of prebuilt systems that don't specify the PSU. Also, a 7750 may disappoint depending on what games you're hoping to play, and at what resolution.

That doesn't specify the power supply. It's like buying a "High quality 3.4GHz processor" and receiving a Pentium 4. I would want make and model.

The 7750 will probably struggle to hit higher settings at 1080p but should be fine low-medium with no AA

@mi1ez: I'll ask the guy whats missing, and what graphics card do you prefer? a graphics card that can handle BF3 and Skyrim at 1080p pretty well, any suggestions?

Branding primarily. PSU's are the one component capable of harming the rest of your system and generally ruining your day. If you are dead set on ordering a pre-build system you could always contact the vendor or just hope for the best. I only recommend the latter if you are willing to order a new PSU and replace the old one if is not quality.

Recommended brands: XFX, Corsair, Seasonic

No problem. Keep in mind that there are other brands that will work out just fine for you. Find out what you are getting and do a little googling.

Also, I will not comment on AMD, but for the GPU a 680, 760, or anything higher than that is recommended. I do not own AMD, but I know in this price range you can get more bang for your buck with AMD. Look for something comparable. Or wait for someone with more knowledge on Radeon to comment :p
