Default New pc (must be good for games)

I've been searching for a new PC for a while and I'd just like to know if any of you have any recommendations I could use. Must be under 400 pounds including (preferably) windows 7.
Suggestions would be appreciated.

Are you looking for a home pc or laptop? Do you prefer Apple, Windows, or other pc type and operating system? What is your price range? Are you going to use it for anything else but gaming? All very important questions that need answers to give you a good recommend. Especially price range.

Without knowing anything about you or the answers to those questions I would start off by suggesting a new AlienWare pc. Just because alien is usually fully customizable, produces computer that are at least a year before their time (vs the computers you get that are obsolete the day after you buy them), and Alien puts concentration towards games. But they can be expensive.

Best thing would probably be an IBM PS/1.

If you want gaming apple isn't good. Sure macs can play some games, but not very graphically intensive games. Their video card is too weak. Plus you aren't going to get one in the OPs budget.

Yo I'm kinda in the same boat. I need a new Laptop that can run games (not necessarily on the very highest specs just high enough without lag).What I mean by this is, I don't really plan on running crisis 2 on full specs, but I want to be able to play average games on decent graphics. Like battlefield 2 kind of games. I also want windows 7 and a decent processor (like probably i3 but if you suggest anything else than whatevs). Probably like 4 gb of ram but if you don't think I need that much then all right. The main thing is it needs a nice graphics card. I'm looking for it between 700 and 800 bucks. Anyone suggest anything? If so I would really appreciate a PM on here because I might not notice if someone replies to this. Also I will love you forever if you do <3
