Config looks solid with 12gig DDR3 and i7. Curious to know why ppl buy gaming PC instead of xbox or ps3. When the xbox got ring of death, We just replace the console. Can these PCs handle gaming with extreme graphics? How is games availability for PCs?

1) XBOX and PS3 graphics are nothing as compared to PC.
2) Yes, games are widely available on the PC.
