    The computer you are looking at is probably a step back from the one you have. That's the cheapest you could go. I would seriously recommend learning how to build your own computer because it will be cheaper and you get the exact specs you want.

    For 500 building is really the only option. There are tons of online Tutorials for it.

    To be honest the most important thing is a decent processed and lots of avail ram. You can find a pretty solid setup refurbished on tiger direct. Look for at least an i5 or and quad and 8gb of ram. You can always add a graphis card down the road. My old desktop was a basic i5 with 8gb and I could run most games pretty good. If your looking for more hardcore then you have to have a minimum 2gb dedicated video card of some sort. I'll tell you that if you give me the $500 I could build a very solid gaming rig by searching the cheapest components. That is by far your best option. Seriously it isn't that hard to do and there are tons of help avail online these days.

    Good luck!
