Hi, I am thinking about buying my first pc and I would like some advice and assistance. I am aware that building is cheaper,but I am not comfortable building my first pc and would rather purchase one. This is a pc I configured and was wondering if these components and parts can work for gaming and work. I'm aiming for a budget gaming pc and my budget is around $900. I am purchasing from cyberpowerpc. I was also wondering is ultra care packaging and professional wiring worth the extra $19. Thank you in advance

Yes, that is a decent gamer. Should be able to play at max/near max settings at any game @ 1600x900. The monitor is kinda tiny, but if 20" is good for you, go with it. After spending that much for the PC, it would seem a bit foolish to hold back on $19 for a better wiring job. Proper cable maintenance is important to allow for good air flow throughout the case. I'm not sure what "ultra-care" pkg. is. I would think they would pkg the system good just to avoid unnecessary returns.

I can't find the Trinity case on Raidmax's site: http://www.raidmax.com/chassis.html
But if it is this one: http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16811146015
...it only comes with tiny 80mm fans side and rear. Better would be a 120mm front...
