umm, if you get prebuilt, forget about gaming, if you dont know how to put one together yourself, try to find a small shop that makes them for you on demand. on 800$, your not looking at much, that's for sure. but, if your carefull of what you do, you can easily get a pc that will run most games.

Looking for something that runs a game like CS:S ay.. I think your looking for something like this model: @ Bestbuy.com

It's at an all new price and it'll do more than just run CS: S.

tell them what your budget is, tell them you mostly plan to play some games, they will most likely say that you wont have an up to date system but still will be able to play most games.
my friend with 600$ canadian managed to get an AMD dual core with a gig of ram and a 7600 GS. its not a huge pc, but he can play oblivion, CS:S, BF2142 and such.
