    I would say it is a good router, its N but I think any N router would be just as good and it doesn't have to be specifically for gaming.

    You're getting a "gaming" router, yet you're not upgrading the GeForce 6150?

    Why wouldn't it? Isn't it a Desktop?

    Don't remember laptops coming with a 20 inch monitor.

    Hmm, that is a desktop, NVM. I'm sorry, notebookreview.com got me confused. However, the HP HDX does come with a 20 inch monitor.
