As of yesterday I'm the proud owner of Logitech X540 Surround Sound Speakers. Cost me $110, but was worth it, they own.

Memory: 4GB RAM
Hard Drive: 231 GB
Video Card: ATI Radeon HD 4870. 1GB VRAM. GDDR5.
Monitor: 32" HD Plasma TV
Sound Card: HD Audio rear output
Keyboard: USB Root Hub

Put it this way. It can play Crysis on it's maximum settings without lag.
