Okay, so I'm going to buy a nice machine, since the laptop I'm writing for is dying on me.
So far, I've come up with this: http://www.ankermann-edv.de/shopping_cart.php?products_id=9987
And this monitor: http://www8.hp.com/it/it/products/monitors/product-detail.html?oid=5090282

Wich means, It should be 600 euros in total, more or less.
Do you think it's a competent configuration for gaming decently, for its price?
Also, does anyone know the Ankermann producer?

The first one just links me to my own shopping cart (empty, of course).
Try this: http://www.ankermann-edv.de/PC-Laptop/ANKERMANN-PC-Systems/AMD-AM3-4-Core-FX-Series/SUPERSELLER-FX-4100-NVIDIA-GTX550Ti-8GB-RAM-1TB-HDD-SATA3::9987.html

Just, replace the 550ti with a hd6850 (1gb)
Looks good for its price. I'd make sure it has got a decent power supply and a quality case, but if those are fine, I doubt you'd find better in the price range.
The computer looks good enough for a budget build. The power supply is a little on the weak side (you won't be able to do much in the way of upgrades without also replacing the PSU), but it should be enough to power the hardware and it's a reputable brand with good customer ratings (the fact that both the PSU and motherboard are listed, and are of good quality for what they are, says to me that the PC manufacturer is on the level and is putting together a good solid system). However, you might want to consider going with a different monitor, as the maximum resolution on the one you listed is only 1600x900, and these days you really shouldn't be settling for anything less than 1920x1080.
Dark Phoenix speaks the truth. It's good enough for now. But a little more of an investment now could save a fair bit later on. You don't want to wind up faced with the prospect of replacing the whole computer again being the most cost effective option. One of the advantages of the desktop over a laptop is that such things should be avoidable.

Not sure about the monitor though. Depends what you want it for as to what you need.
