It’s a decent computer, but I can’t recommend buying from Ibuypower. Me and my friend both had VERY bad experiences with them. If you don’t believe me, feel free to google something along the lines of "buy from ibuypower?" or something of the sort. There are tons of people that will say the same thing.
It’s a decent build but honestly your best bet is to build your own. It’s not difficult if you can follow simple instructions and you will save money, or have a better rig for the same price.

if u can overclock ur CPU, then yeah it should be ok
Moyven. That computer is not worth $775. No purchased computer is. Check out this website:

This website will show you step-by-step how to build a computer yourself. For about $790 you can build a gaming computer MUCH more powerful than what you have chosen already. It will guide you through the entire assembly process including setting it up afterwords. I highly recommend it.
Good Luck no matter what you choose!
