Question about NForce 430 before purchasing new PC

[Noob1]

Looking to buy HP Pavillion A6130N, but don't know a whole lot about the NForce 430 chipset. How is it for gaming? I was planning just to drop my current video card into that PC and roll with it.

It looks like there pricing this machine for about $700 and if you were so inclined, you good build a much better machine for this amount of money or a machine as good as this for less. Is your current video card PCIe x16? It doesn't look like it has an AGP slot. For a retail machine looks pretty much like you can get for the price but really you could put together a much better machine. If you've never thought about building, check out this manual and if you think you can follow the instructions, you can build. I'm necessarily recommending this board, just looking at the manual. If you decide to build, you can get a lot of advise on the components but be sure to list your budget
