Putting a computer together is really not at all that hard, despite how complicated it looks.

^ That, pretty much.
Could skimp a bit on case, psu, and everyone's got DVD drives floating around.
Not convinced you need DDR3 for an i5 either.

1156 socket motherboards only use DDR3, and i5s are only for 1156 motherboards.

if I had more time and money I would have taken this option, but I really don't have the time to build this up, i got too much work to sort out, I really appreciate your posts.
Was looking on ebuyer and found these two pcs, i think they are much much better then the comet ones.

I find that the second one is much better, graphics and processor wise, I could be wrong.

The Acer with the quad core is better. They both have horrible embedded graphics processors. As is, their gaming potential is zero. You'll need to buy and install a good one, the same as all the others.
