build yourself a PC, seriously.

Now if it wasn't true, I wouldn't be saying it, would I? Spend as much time as you want on the pre-built market, but you will never find an accordingly priced gaming desktop. That's why so many people build their own PCs.

This is what you get from Hp, Dell, IBM such, they bottleneck some component and install most of the times the OS for you too without  any repair CDs or then they partition like 250GB out of 1TB for "backup" and incase the hard drive will fail ýou will lose the OS "backup" too

+ You most of the times build a PC cheaper than the closest prebuilt package is compared to your custom PC

10GB is an odd amount of RAM. You want to buy them in pairs so they work in Dual Channel (like 4+4GB) for maximum efficiency.
Also, Get an SSD drive for the OS. You'll thank me later.

hmm i also got a pavilion but they always need 1 or 2 things to be upgraded so if possible build yourself 1 its much cheaper
