AMD Phenom II desktop in a Lian Li PC-61 case. Includes: AMD Phenom II X4 920 2.8GHz 4-core processor, MSI K9A2 Platinum AM2/AM2+ motherboard, 4GB Corsair DDR2 RAM, Seagate 640GB 7200RPM hard drive, MSI Nvidia Geforce GTX460 1GB video card, LG 22X DVD-R drive DVD burner, Antec Earthwatts 650W power supply, and Sunbeam Core Contact Freezer 120mm heatsink.

Im using it for video editing and graphic design, i think it will meet my requirements no?

$175

Yes. You can sell the components on ebay individually for a profit, and put the money towards a better system if gaming is your goal. But as it sits, it is not a very good gaming machine. And the board is obsolete along with the memory and CPU. You may be happy playing single player games, but it won't keep up with 64 other players on a busy multiplayer server with AAA games.
