So guys, I know litterally nothing about computers

[ICEE]

But I'm thinking I need to get a nice new desktop. See, my sister and I got in a fight and long story short, I gave her laptop a drink when it wasn't thirsty. I now owe her a lap top. I figure if I have to buy a computer I may as well buy one for me, and she can use my craptop. She doesn't need it for anything other than ms word and myspace so it doesn't need any horsepower.

Heres the important part: I need a good PC that can run new games better than my POS vaio. Does anyone have any suggestions on what I should get?

This computer is fail anyways. For that price? Shame on you. Get at least an E8500 and HD 4850 with that price.
