I think you're going to have trouble finding an "8600 or more" and less than $60. You're pretty much stuck with getting an 8600.

If that i cant seem to find a 8600GT for 60 or less on newegg lol if it was like 80-100$ u could get a 8600 or better but not for under 60

Isn't there a problem with the 8600 GT buffer or something that makes AA run horribly on it?

Yea it is nice... but you need to research what you are buying, you could have gotten a lot more at www.newegg.com (http://www.newegg.com)
I know this is prob your first time really looking for computers, but spend more time searching for prices. Because there is always something better out there...

not bad only thing that would hold u back on high end games is your video card the 9500GS is ok should run most games on ok settings but i would save up to get a 9800GT or better to really run games well u can get a 9800GT for about 100$ after rebate or a GTX260 for about 190-175 after rebate right now.
