is this a good gaming computer, if not can you take the time to explain to me what could be better about it. or something like that

Base Specifications:
Overclocked Stable to 3.7GHz
FREE CPU Liquid Cooling
FREE Windows 7 Upgrade
Processor: Intel Core i7 920
Memory: 6GB DDR3 1600MHz
Motherboard: EVGA X58 LE
Graphics: NVIDIA GTX 295
Power Supply: Enermax 1250W
Storage: 1TB & 500GB HDDs

and i also could get that with a 2x SLI Dual GTX 275 (Should I?)

so is this a good gaming computer, again if not why so?
 
That's a standard gaming system!
It will be awesome for a beginner and for experts as well.
I say go for it and go for the the GTX 275.
Nice!
 
One word: damn.

That's one hell of a machine.

And YES, go with the dual GTX 275. They will run much cooler and quieter, and give you better performance than the GTX 295. (The 295 is actually two GTX 280's in SLI, but, they're underclocked so it's actually closer to two GTX 260's). To the other reviewer, you should know that the Core i7 is a quad-core CPU. <_<

Pretty sure that your PC makes mine want to run and hide -- and I can play any game out there right now with my hardware, too. Then again, I only spent $550 on it. xD

As a side-note, make sure to leave this PC on standby or hibernate when it's not in use. That hardware is going to pull a LOT of power when it's turned on, and keeping it in a low power state will save you at least $50 a year in energy bills.
