Is This A Decent Gaming Desktop

Is this a decent gaming pc?

Out of all of what you have written... the only things that actually matter and you have to take into consideration are 1) Memory (which is also called RAM) and you have 8GB of that which is really good, 2)Video Card (also called graphics processing unit), you have 1GB of that which is more than enough to handle almost any game. 3)Hard Drive, 1TB=1000GB which is probably more than what you would ever use or need. 4)Processor, and the one that you have is really good.
But ****, that thing has a 22" moniter? Thats really really big for a laptop screen, so if your planning to take that computer anywhere other than your inside your house. You should be fine
So to summarize, yes, that is one hell of a computer :)

Is $400 enough for a decent gaming PC?

As you would expect, the experience you get from a $600 PC is going to be significantly better than a $400 PC in terms of frame rate, and quality settings. However, if you assemble the components yourself, and you research enough to pick them out carefully you should be able to get an OK PC for $400. Personally at a price point this low it might be worth considering buy some of the components such as the GPU used to get better value. With used components a $400 PC might be able to perform closer to a $600 PC (that has new components). There are actually a number of good youtube channels that have devoted time to showing how much value you can get by buying used components that you should check out if you go this route.On the other hand I doubt you would be able to find a prebuild PC for $400 that can reasonable run games at 1080p, however $600 is probably entering that territory. Either way prebuilts are significant worse value, and learning to build a PC isn’t very hard so I would recommend building it yourself.Either way don’t listen to some of these ridiculous answers telling you that if you don’t spend $1000+ it won’t be any good. That is utter horse shit.

How much does it cost to build/buy a decent gaming PC?

Depends on what kinds of games you want to play.My current rig ran me $1400. (4.1ghz i7, 32gb ddr4, geforce 1060 6gb GPU, SSD, 3tb drive, liquid cooling, gold rating power supply) Shes an adorable giant monster, and runs great for 3d rendering as well (plus I got a nice big case, so I can hide behind her).I’ve gone into detail on this on other questions before and had people pitch absolute screaming fits insisting that you can build a great gaming machine for around $400. Technically true, although I wouldn't touch some of the games i play right now at the settings im running with some of the parts they’ve listed (and wouldn't trust some of the sellers listed either).Really, though, you can build one hell of a nice machine in the $1k to $2k range if you’re careful with what you put into it. I’m sure you can build an acceptable rig for less, too, just… it will take a lot more in depth knowledge and fiddling (and probably some overclocking).

Is there a decent gaming PC under $800? Dell Inspiron or Alienware Possibly?

Country: US Usage
General usage with some gaming (Guild Wars 2, PS2/Gamecube emulations at 60fps, some modern games)
Budget: $800 or less preferred, but definitely no higher than $1000 Peripherals needed: just basic (keyboard, mouse, etc, doesn't need to be included)

I want to preface this with the fact that I am only familiar with basic pc specs, I understand processor speeds and cores, ram, etc. All the specifics of GPUs, video cards, etc will be lost on me. I don't do tons of gaming, but I want to be able to play most modern games without any lag. I don't mind setting the graphic settings to med or low to achieve this.
I am looking at the entry level Dell Inspiron Gaming desktops. The Inspiron 5675 in particular(http://www.dell.com/en-us/shop/cty/pdp/spd/inspiron-5675-gaming-desktop/ddcwrdsk920s?cid=314164&st=dpla_DellGaming&VEN1=0geXesqo,231531659262,901pdb6671,c&VEN2=,dpla_DellGaming&lid=5949427&dgc=st&dgseg=dhs&acd=1230923830920560&VEN3=812104192427302663). A gaming desktop for under $600? Sounds too good to be true...so is it? I don't want to waste $600 on something that I later find out can't efficiently play most games.
Is this a good purchase if I only place to play in 1080p? What about if I only play in 720p? Should I suck it up and spend another $200 for the Alienware Aurora (http://www.dell.com/en-us/shop/dell-desktop-computers/new-alienware-aurora/spd/alienware-aurora-r7-desktop/dpcwxtc01h)? Or is that not good either?

Any suggestions for a PC besides these?

Is this an "ok" gaming pc?

So I dont know much about computers especially gaming computers. All the specs just look like gibberish to me. I know someone selling a "gaming pc" for about 350 and they sent me the specs, can anyone tell me if this is a decent gaming computer?
I should probably add that the games I typically play don't usually have super amazing graphics anyway.

Is a Dell PC good for gaming?

Dell is no more good or bad for gaming then any other PC brand.Dell has a gaming lineup (called alienware), just as HP has one, and ASUS has one (called R.O.G.).If it is an actual gaming computer then it is good for gaming as it will have an i5 to i7 processor, decent dedicated graphics card, decent amount of memory and likely an SSD.What is not good for gaming is any desktop not specifically designed for gaming.These desktops will lack the cooling and power requirements needed for gaming, as well as most likely only having integrated graphics. Without a dedicated GPU (hince only having the graphics integrated into your CPU) you will be greatly limited in what games you even can play, and even then you will be playing most of them on low settings/low resolution.I have seen so many people think they are getting a deal on that $450 desktop, to then try to make it into a gaming PC and realize it will take them another $400 to make it not as good as the one they could have built for $650.With all of this said, building your own desktop is by far the best way to go. It is not that hard and there are tons of tutorials on youtube.I suggest you go over to Tom’s Hardware: For The Hardcore PC Enthusiast and make a thread there, giving them your budget and performance goals (as well as country) and they can make a good build for you (this forum is just not very good at back-and-forth conversation).If you just cant build your own then paying a local tech to build it will still result in more computer for the money over Dell/HP/Asus gaming desktops as they are frankly overpriced.Dont buy from places like CyberPowerPC or iBuyPower because they make their money off of tricking uninformed buyers into buying weak old platforms and by going cheap on the non spec sheet parts (motherboards, fans, power supplies, etc)>
