It is a prebuilt from HP for $600
Pretty much everything you want, 2gb extra of memory, tv tuner the videocard is about the same speed as a gts450 (the gts450 is a little bit faster and dx11 but not much faster.)
If you are going to overclock then build it yourself. But I am just saying that HP is a good deal.

That is a good deal indeed, much cheaper than building from the ground up. You can even do 1 TB in RAID 0 for $10 more.
But I wonder what manufacturers they use for HDD and RAM... probably homemade I guess. I prefer WD and Samsung for HDD, but I believe hp would be fine. Not so sure about the hp RAM though.
Aside from that, pre-installed Norton...
My current computer come with that pre-installed and it was quite annoying. It was not easy to uninstall cleanly either. I had to clean-install windows to completely get rid of it.
In need of graphics card advice. (edit with update)

Your card isn't an ati hd5670, it is about 75% as fast as an 8800gt

ATI Mobility HD5730 is almost the same as the desktop ATI HD5670 but it is closer to ATI HD5570

One thing you didn't mention is what resolution you're trying to run at.

Glad to hear it's working. That kind of performance is much more what I'd expect from a 5670.

That didn't stop me from getting the 5770 so that I would have a "buffer zone" of peformance gains

The HD5670 is meant to be a casual gamer card

Nice to know that someone selling these actually knows what they're talking about.
