So, I'm getting a gaming PC with my excess school money, and I'm stuck between two of them, through Best Buy. Links below-

HP - Pavilion Laptop / AMD A-Series Processor / 15.6" Display / 6GB Memory / 640GB Hard Drive - Dark Umber - dv6-6135dx

HP - Pavilion Laptop / AMD Phenom™ II Processor / 17.3" Display / 4GB Memory / 500GB Hard Drive - Pewter - g7-1167dx

The first one is pretty amazing from what my friend and the saleman said (yeah, right... ), but it IS $700. Ouch. But while apparently the 2nd computer can run Dragon Age Origins, and even Fallout, Oblivion and The Witcher, it might have performance issues, specifically with the mods.

I'm hoping to run some of the more basic ones, nothing TOO fancy, such as, example, the following;

Ferelden Models - 218 Unique Character Faces and Presets at Dragon Age Nexus - Dragon Age mods and community

I'm also looking to do standard equipment mods (color, fan creations, armors and swords), and "enhancers" (clothes on during the, ahem, yeah, you know ; animation fixes, etc.).

With that in mind, any suggestions from you, the community, to heighten my gaming experience?
