It also rocks in at $800 which isn’t a bad price for a desktop with all these features. We managed to find one review for you to check the full deal on the Gateway DX4840-02e over at PC Mag where they gave it a 4 out of 5, quoting integrated graohics and bloatware are negatives whilst on the upside were the machine’s performance and included monitor.
