You could so build it better for the same price yourself. The 8600GT is a pretty low end card. It's ok for running older games in DX9 mode, but if you want to play some modern games, especially in DX10, your going to be disappointed.
That is just a poor choice of a system at that price, you can do much better. You'd have to spend another $100 on top of the base price for an operating system and the 8600GT is a pretty weak card. Compare the stats on that system to this one

granted the newegg one only has integrated graphics, but at least it has an OS and for the price of the OS you could drop a 9800GT into it or a HD4830.
Keep looking, keep doing some research
