Hi guys,

I've been looking to upgrade and buy a new computer recently. I'm looking to get a really solid computer for under $1000.

I have thought about trying to build my own, but I really don't know the best parts for my money, and I've never done more than install a graphics card and a psu.

Recently I saw this computer for $870 on cyberpowerpc, and have become really tempted to get it, but I am a little bit wary.
