Go for a Dell with a coupon. You could probably get a decent core duo laptop for 800 with the coupons they have now.

Yeah, the only way to getg a gamming rig at that price would be one of the coupons... even then, the GPU might not be able to handle the latest and greatest at a nice resolution with smooth effects.
