Is this a good deal for my new desktop??

[smartalecc5]

Hi, I was wondering what you guys thought about this computer I am thinking of getting. I will be of course using it for multitabling poker but also storing lots of music, photos, and possibly movies (both watching and editing). Also, right now there are no coupons for this machine besides free ground shipping. Are there any coupons out for this machine that come and go and will be here soon?

Also, what are your opinions on my upgraded sound card. It costs $100 to upgrade to it...do you think it is worth it?
