None of them from what I can see.
None of the rigs in there have anything in the way of decent graphics cards, the most I saw was a GT630 and A4 APU graphics.
You wont find a gaming machine there.

Ill mainly play Minecraft or GTA SA, so its fine by me.

The Asus CG or whatever - the one with the 660 and costs 1299.

That's the best for gaming but it's a big time rip.

And for 559 you can forget about finding a gaming machine from there.

Why not go to newegg? Or any of the other ones?

Or better yet, go buy the parts and build it yourself. That's the only option for anyone with half a brain.

^ Portugese, cant exactly order parts off an American website.

I advise you build your own rig. That website doesnt really offer any gaming oriented builds, and the only one that is suitable for gaming is well above you budget.

Actually there is one:

It has a GTX660 which is a pretty good gaming card. It's outside your budget so my suggestions to build your own PC for much cheaper or Just save some more until you can afford this, but I strongly suggest you build your own.

Im unable to build one.

Are you unable to build one because you don't know how?

Because it's actually extremely simple, takes only a couple hours and a youtube video. It shouldn't be intimidating - it's like LEGOs for grown-ups.

 

[manofchalk]

Its fairly simple to build one once you have educated yourself how to, I'l link to a couple of build guides that will go though the whole thing.
