I'm thinking of buying this, seems like a really good deal. I heard that the graphics card is a little weak so ill that will probably be my first upgrade.

I'm more of a nvidia fan, got any nvidia cards you'd recommend?
what are you wanting to play? I'm wanting to at least play battlefield 3 and GTA IV, with the current card i know i wouldn't be able to max it out my guess.

Don't be a fanboy, if you go with Nvidia just because you like them better, you're likely going to be paying more for a lesser card.
