Not really, no mate the ibuypower xtreme gamer is better by a long shot, speaking of CPU. This one got better GPU alright but its child play to replace GPU so the xtreme gamer is better value and also performer.

Shame I can't read all the specs on there website in more detail

This pc isn't good for its price. No one needs 16 gigs of ram. AMD processor, wouldn't do it. 120$ graphics card. Nope, don't do it.

Will it still run, of course. I got an old core2duo 2.5ghz clocked at 3.6 ghz with a 15$ fan, Radeon HD4850 and 4 gigs of ram and everything runs allright on the highest settings at 1920x1200. I disabled AA, V-Sinc and post-process effects, object details is at middle. These things don't do too much, the game looks at least 80-90% as good as it can and it runs with decent frames. My rig is already 4 years old and I upgraded it for ~ 550$ back then.

I'm not a fan of buying something one can't afford, maybe houses or cars but not a computer. Seriously. But I'm not your dad. Just keep in mind that on most rigs that you don't build yourself there is some stuff that you could get cheaper. Or some bottleneck that you could switch out if you build it yourself so everything runs at the same pace. Most of these prebuild-pcs have some cheap china motherboard or power supply that you can't overclock and so on...

Thats the main reason I'd be careful of these bestbuy deals. If you absolutely need a pc right now and can't afford it, go to your bank, get a cheap credit, visit something like tomshardware forum, let these guys tell you which parts to buy and then you'll likely have a better deal.
