Try like a resale shop. Do you have like a goodwill or something?

I wouldn't. Did you even consider drivers?!
There is no way that I can see this working successfully.

MW2 is the root of all evil.

First off the 460 is nearly twice as good as the 5750. You will not need an upgrade for quite a while. The system comes with 8gb of ram which is more than enough.
And the Processor will provide performance equal to an i7 in most tasks. Again, the i7 is only worth-while if you need hyper-threading. Trust me, you don't.

Double-post
I will throw this out here. You won't need a new graphics card to play good games. The 460 is more than enough. The main selling point for the i7 is the triple-channel ram and ability to support more than one x16 PCI-E slot. Since you are new this is more than enough.
Yes it is the i5 760. You will gain no performance in games from having an i7. The only general difference the support for hyper-threading. Very few things, especially games, benefit from HT.

I laugh at the stupidity of everybody in this topic.
The i7 875k is by far the most expensive part of that computer. The 875k has an unlocked multiplier. I assume that you do not know what that is. The only person who would gain value from it would be a heavy overclocker.
Keep searching new-egg chief.

There really is no reason for gaming. You shouldn't need to overclock it anyways. I also am assuming that you are on stock cooling. Not perfect for overclocking.

The only reason to get a laptop is battery life. You will get none of that with a heavy gaming laptop.
Asus sells one right now that is pretty damn good and ties any alienware computer for $1300.

Why bother with the 860? Do you think you will benefit from hyperthreading?
10gb of RAM is rediculous you should never need more than 8gb.
For the cost of that computer, the computer should have at least a GTX 460 or a 5830. Any card around those would also make sense.

At bestbuy, I believe, you can pick up one of Asus' gaming laptops for around $1300 that is much better than either of those.

The downside, of course is the short battery life (About 2.5 hours) but that is probably the best laptop you can get right now. I should also mention that it isn't horribly overpriced.
