What is a good gaming computer, or should I build my own?

Q. I've brought this subject up before, but I would really appreciate someone helping me with this gaming computer stuff. I can't say I know much, or am an expert. And knowing that I do not know what I am doing, I really just want to buy a good one for under 1,000$ preferably around 600-500 hundred dollars. I mostly right now just play Skyrim and MMOs like WoW, Rift, and Vindictus. Would anyone care to shed some light for me? My brother's friend knows about computers but has yet to contact me or help in anyway really. Anyone?
So are you telling me to buy one off that site, or just learn/get help and build my own?
I guess you're right, I'd get screwed lick back when the Xbox 360 came out and they had so many problems cause they were built with cheap components. Thanks, I'll try not to be so antsy. And get my brother's friend to help, and do some research of my own.
I was looking at that one earlier haha, can you vouch for it being a solid gaming computer? I don't plan on playing much. Just what I have already mentioned.
That ALSO sounds to be good, gosh so many answers. I am very indecisive..

A. build your own, it's not that difficult.

I've just put together a parts list for a gaming computer including the OS for slightly over $600, able to play Skyrim on high settings but not on ultra (the MMOs are not that demanding as Skyrim).

can anyone give me a cheap but good gaming computer build?
Q. i want to buy/make a gaming computer but i can only spend about 400-600$ so my question is can anyone put a build that can run good games.but is affordable

A. At $400 forget gaming. At $500-$600 you can get something.

At such a low price point the best value won't be building from scratch, because Windows alone costs $105. You've gotta add that to the cost of your hardware. Someone quoting you a price of $595 for parts isn't helping because your total cost will be $700. Your best value will probably be getting a basic computer system on sale, then adding a graphics card (and possibly a power supply).

For example, here's a budget gaming PC. Right off the shelf it can play games like WoW, Rift, even Call of Duty:MW2 at screen resolutions of 1440x900 or lower. Its not a good choice for higher resolution monitors or games much harder than those, because the Radeon HD 5570 graphics card is only entry-level.

But for gaming you'd be better off starting with this:

Then adding these:

Then you'd have a system capable of playing games at full HD resolution of 1920x1080. The processor is a fast dual-core, which is fine because:

a) clock speed is what matters most in a gaming CPU, not the number of cores
b) most games aren't coded to use more than two cores.
c) 70% of gaming performance is determined by your graphics card, not your CPU

So you're better off having a fast a dual-core or triple-core CPU combined with a $120 graphics card, than having a slower-clocked quad-core with a $60 graphics card.
