yea but for 1300 dollars I can easily upgrade that, and its got 2 displays included

When you don't mention price or even if you bought it in the OP it is hard to tell what question you're asking though :)

Are you buying this computer new or used?  If it's new, that's looks like a good deal to me.  If it's used, it still looks like a pretty good deal.

Case is propably not very good, CPU isn't the best compared to other parts and isn't even overclockable. Stock cooler, most likely crappy PSU. For the price... maybe.

Yea I translated it because it was in germany.

I don't really care about the case, I can exchange the CPU and PSU and it would be still a nice deal, Even if I didn't resell the i5 after I upgraded and forgot to mention it, it isn't a stock cooler
