The newegg build would be a better game rig. I would up the memory to 2 gigs for real gaming. I also wonder why that for $10 more you can get a nec 3550a dvd-rw drive.

Well ya the Newegg one. For 731 that is good price. Good stuff and will run most game for sure. In my opinion, it looks like upgradable soon. You want a basic game rig, then there ya go. Good Job though.
