$500 Dell desktop door buster a good choice?

I am interested in the $500. Dell Desktop package. Does anyone know if this would be a good computer for light gaming, fast enough? Basically Minecraft and games like that for the kids. Would I need to buy a video card or anything extra? Has anyone seen a better option out there for my needs? Also wondering if it will be online or sell out quick in store since it's a door buster. Hopefully not many looking at desktops though. Thanks.

I am also interested. I seriosly doubt that u need addional video card to run those games. The Dell comes packed with an Intel 5 processor which is a great chip. I assuming that over an 1gig is dedicated to the graphics in addtion to the graphic chip. I am camping out. However, I doubt that many people will be buying this or any other desktops this year.

Will any details about this package deal become available? Like USB 2.0 or 3.0? HDMI ready? Anything? I'm looking at either getting this or possibly the Lenovo H430-57311430 Desktop PC from Staples for $449 and buying the $80 Dell Monitor from Dell.

 

The Computer deals really aren't that great this year sadly.
