New gaming PC opinions

[Lange]

Hey all,

Ordered a new HP computer and wanted some opinions for playing PR and such. Got information before I bought it of course but just wanted some outside opinions. I know alot of people think buying from a major comp manufacturer has drawbacks and it definetely does but I think this one really will work well. I considered a online custom build company, ibuypower however this HP just truck home.

HP ENVY Phoenix 800

Windows 8-would of perferred 7 but oh well ill see how it works out.

i7 4770 processor-the custom build I was looking at had a i5 but for the price having a i7 is just a nice bonus even though it doesn't do much for gaming.

NVIDIA GTX 680- now this is what swayed me toward this HP vs ibuypower. I got this card for rediculously cheap vs what i could get in the ibuypower only a 30 dollar upgrade from the base of a GTX 645 on this HP which is a lower end card haha. Insane really. Vs a GTX 660 for a similar price in the ibuypower. Great card on its own but not to pass up to get the ibuypower vs the HP.

8 GB DDR3 1600 2 DIMM-not the greatest but good enough

2 TB HD- they offered SSD but was gonna cost a lot more I can get a SSD later.

Hoping I can run PR extremely well let me know what you all think.

You'll be fine.

Why don't you report back when you've played it on that system ok?

THAT IS A SUPERB MACHINE, SHOULD LAST YOU 3 YEARS,

At some point (year from now or longer away) you can buy a replacement lga1150 mobo with 2 pciex16 slots, and a second GTX680 on the used market, and extend life even further.
