The Toshiba laptop you listed has a very slow HDD. It's also using that slow HDD as its boot drive, which is never a good idea.

OP: What is this for? You have a high budget but it seems you have pretty low needs.

I like the look of this.

Great processor, more than enough memory and a big hard drive.

And it comes with keyboard and mouse, leaves you enough money behind to buy a decent monitor.

I would be very wary of a system like that. There's no telling what sort of devilish PSU they put in there. I noticed more than a few comments were about failed parts, too. Build your own for better all-around quality.

I am currently planning a build with your same budget, what do you plan on using the computer for?

700 Dollars, that's pretty cheap for such a good PC, i might be buying that. Thanks

It's not really good. Strong CPU but a really bad motherboard, PSU and GPU.
