I would suggest just building your own PC. I don't think that buying one already made, let alone what company makes it, would be good for anything other than just general use. If that is what you want, go for it. But if you want a gaming rig, build your own.

Yeah. Build your own. It's much more cost effective and can be wayyy easier to upgrade. Depending on what you're going to use this PC for, you could get a less expensive DVD drive, memory, and mobo.

If it's a gift, then just take it. Haha. You should have plenty of room to upgrade in the future if needed.

Why can't you "self upgrade" it? Are you grandparents attaching a monitoring system to make sure you don't take of the side panel or something? If you can't build your own, you're best option is to buy the most effective and economical pre-built then throwing in a new GPU. Or if you HAVE to, ordering from a site that builds that pc for you is also an option. cyberpowerpc or whatever they are called allows for this, but it's still going to be overpriced.

Can you stop giving me shit about not being able to build one myself?
My grand parents are buying me a computer for graduation my parents and grand parents would not want me to buy a bunch a parts then build it myself cause they think I would mess up.
I would buy from cyberpowerpc but idk what I need for a good gaming computer.
