They are both "terribad" in places. The 4850 is bad, even with 2 (and old), and the cpu on the 2nd is very old. What prices are you talking? I still believe it will be cheaper to just order parts from newegg/amazon/scan than prebuilt computers which aren't great. These computers could play the games, probably with lower settings, certainly with recording.
