Well I was looking for a gaming computer and found this one to have a very good price for the specs (4gigs ram, nvidia 9800, and other things)...i've owned compaq, dell, and hp before. I dont like compaq, my dell messed up on me so many times and i hated it, I'm alright with HP but this Gateway has really good specs. Im trying to look for it in china, in the US Best Buy it's on sale for 1250 at the moment. I'm also thinking that I might have to get it shipped here since Im not sure i'll find it here

I have a old model Uniwill 258ka0 (AMD64 3200, 1GB RAM, Radeon 9700), used for many years, I am satisfid with gaming and movie. But I don't find anywhere selling Uniwill in China.
Many brands can't be found in Chinese market.

If it helps I have a BRAND NEW Gateway m - 6847 still in the box brought in the usa for my EX girlfriend. She pissed me off bigtime so I never gave it to her.

3gb, duel core. check out gateway.com for all the specs.

I brought it at a box retailer. Brought it to China in the box but I had to take it out to put in my carry on. I put the battery in case tsa asked me to turn it on and I turned it on only 1 time. i have a computer in my residence and really don't need it. And my now ex girlfriend can buy her own.

If interested pm me.
