Why shouldn't I buy this computer.

I Love YTtalk
Hey guys & gals, I was originally going to get a new Mac but.. I'll be getting new 16" BBS's for my e30 instead so I don't have $2000 to blow on my newest toy..

My budget is $1000 for a new machine, i'll only be using it to render our music videos.

I wanted to build my own but I just can't argue with this price
> bit.ly/19FPxh0

Is there any reason I should not buy that computer? I can't get the parts for that cheap (I don't think, correct me if i'm wrong)

My HP labtop is the best (reliable, long lasting) piece of technology i've ever owned, period.. I like the brand so far!
What do you think?
Yay or Nay?

Its good:)
 
I'd recommend upgrading the graphics card for rendering videos, but that might not be too easy with a prebuilt machine. Some other parts, motherboard and psu, might not be to great as well. Otherwise It's a pretty good deal. :)

The two main issues with it really are the GPU and the OS. Windows 8? Really? You'd be better off with Mac OS X (just to clarify, I'm Windows all the way except for Vista and 8 :p)
The GPU is a tad outdated but it's not horrendously out of date. I'm gonna assume that site is in Dollars so I'd say it's a fair price for that system. Might not be the fastest but it'll get the job done :p

It's in $CAD :)
I don't believe I can afford a new Mac, and I wouldn't buy used..
I could get three of those for the price of the Mac I was looking at.. I only plan on using it for rendering videos, is Windows 8 really that bad?
