nothing since I do not know what video card is included.  If it is a high-end card (x1800 or higher) than maybe around $750, but I would think it would be easier to just build and be cheaper.  I would also upgrade to 2gb and find out if the processor is single or dual core (since it wasn't marketed as I would assume single core, probably a venice).

But it's got six months of AOL for FREE!!!!!

But yeah, without knowing what kind of video card and the brand of RAM and PSU in it it's kinda hard to say much.

Most of the extra software(aside from Windows and Office) included can be downloaded for free, and I'd imagine the antivirus and spyware protection mentioned is freeware also. The warranty is also pretty much worthless. If anything breaks in 1 year deal with the parts manufacturer, not the builder.

$450 max, & they can keep the aol & all the other crappy programs. Wait a minute! store bought?! ugggg.

How is it custom with all that crap on it, save your money build your own for less.

btw you dont want to run bf2 on high settings, you want it on the lowest possible & no it could not handle it.

The funny thing about alot of storebought systems is you have to ask a salesperson about unlisted specs. I hate how the descriptions try to scam you into purchasing old components. You'd do better with custom-built. If you really, really want pre-built, I would pick up a Dell (for the customer service and the occasional free upgrade) or FalconNW.
