Is this a good deal for $400

Is this a good deal for $400, just for general PC use, and playing games.

Asus P5N-D SLI Ready Barebone Kit - Asus P5N-D Mobo, Intel PD E5200 CPU, OCZ 4GB DDR2 800MHz RAM, WD Caviar HD, EVGA 9500 GT Vid Card, LG DVD Writer, Apex PC-389 ATX MT Case, Ultra 550W PSU at TigerDirect.com

Welllll, Not really.

The ultra psu is pretty crappy, and the rest depends on what games you play and on what resolution.

the 9500 gt is really low end..

I wouldn't get it.

Is there a better build / PC that for around $400 that someone could send to me?

Would be appreciated

total: $412 w/ free shipping on most of the items. There's also a $10 mail in rebate. The one from tigerdirect is $445 with $45 MIR. The build i picked out has a a better video card, but other than that similar performance. If you make your budget $450 then you can upgrade to the quad-core propus, then you'd have a nice build. This one here:
