Hey guys, so im about to buy a computer and I wanted to know if this is a good computer or not, and if any of you have it can you give me a review and most importantly is it good for regular stuff AND gaming?

[quote=qwan456]No, when an AIO computer like the Toshiba you are looking at using a mobile SB i3 dual with its integrated graphics for $700 to the [url=http://configure.us.dell.com/dellstore/config.aspx?oc=svcthdt6&model_id=vostro-470&c=us&l=en&s=soho&cs=ussoho1]Dell Vostro[/url] with an IB i5 quad for $549 and a 24" monitor for $150, it's not.

Plus once you get an AIO computer, you typically stuck with the graphic card that it has already, which the Intel GMA HD is not something you want to be using for gaming. Maplestory is fine though.

May I asked what games you will be playing? What's your budget? I'm assuming the budget will need a monitor, mouse, keyboard, speakers, etc. too correct? What country/state are your from (don't have to give me an address or anything like that, but I need to know what is available for you)[/quote]
Uhhhh East coast US and like $750 and I'm not sure what type of games I'm going to play, a variety but they will have a higher requirement then maplestory.

It's included in the budget, but I do have a old one with my old computer I'm replacing(both 7 years old) and it is included in the budget I guess, and yes I can order online.

Well I built mine myself and it took me a day before I ordered the parts to learn about everything I needed to know. And what do you mean by inconvenient? It'll work the same way a regular computer would. It's honestly really simple but if you're not comfortable with it then we'll forget about it. Would you be able to order online and do you have a monitor you can use now or is it included in the budget?

[quote=drager260]The desktop you can get will be much better than the all in one that you're looking at. For the same price you can get a separate 23" LED monitor and build a computer that beats that one. What's your budget and would you be willing to build your own computer or is that not an option?[/quote]
well my budget is like $750 max or something around there, and building my own computer is not an option, because 1) i don't know how. 2) Nobody I know, know's how 3) It's kinda inconvenient. Plus i want to be able to do things like school work on it.

[quote=drager260]All in one computers are never the way to go for gaming. At least right now they aren't. Why don't you want a regular desktop PC?[/quote]

It's not that I don't want a regular desktop, all in ones are just the first things that come up, + wouldn't it be cheaper than buying a desktop than a monitor,etc...?
