Help me buy a new computer (please?)

I am in dire need of a new computer, and lack the patience to build one myself, so I am turning to you all for help in buying a new one. I would like to actually have the luxury to play games on it this time, so I was hoping someone here might tell me what sort of things to look for in a new PC. My price range is around $1200 or so. If there is already a thread about this somewhere, I apologize.

    I will offer my forum-related advice seeing as I have learned this from first-hand experience:

    A question like this is best not turned into its own thread. Instead I suggest posting your request in the computer build thread in Moe's Stupid Technology Tavern. I know this because I made a thread exactly like this one a while back, and it went ignored until the admins cropped it. It's nice to have someone pointing you in the right direction.

    Probably going to want to post that in the computer build thread. The people there will help you out as much as you need. Questions about building a computer belong in that thread.

    Thats the thread, give as much info as you can when you post and you should be on a good start.

    EDIT: Beaten.
