Honestly, the Gateway is a better rounded gaming system. The processor difference is only 130mhz, which isn't going to over come the deficiencies of the 9600GT compared to the 9800. If the HP came with a CPU at 2.5ghz or more, then I'd say it'd be worth considering. 4gb of RAM is also plenty for what average users need.
