Default Buying Computer need advice

So I'm interested in getting a new computer since my current one can't play anything...

I was looking at this pre-built computer on newegg and thought it looked pretty good for the price :

http://www.newegg.com/Product/Produc...82E16883227151

Would that be alright for playing Guild Wars?

Also am I able to eventually upgrade this computer? If not could someone possibly show me a good build on newegg for around the same price please?

Thanks!

first off id say itll play guild wars on maximun setttings no problem that i can see and not a bad price you might be able to get the same specs a little cheaper but it takes research. im sure someone here can recommend a better build but unless you not afraid of building your own id go with your pick

Thanks for the reply. I have one question though. If I bought this computer, would I later be able to upgrade parts on it if I needed to?

yes you would it got two slots for more memory and i bet if you wanted to exchange for a higher gigabyte ram you could you got 2 pci express slots open and im thinking most graphic cards that be made in the next so many months will use the same slot your hard drive can be upgrade almost everything in the machine can be upgraded in the future but the spec are pretty darn good not much would be a challenge to it

assuming ibuypower doesn't use any proprietary parts, you should be able to upgrade later on.
