It is a pretty weak system for more demanding games smash should be fine though.

If I'm not wrong , that All-in-One PC will cost 1500 USD . For a price like that , you could buy a beefy laptop that is at least 3 times faster than the HP or build a super gaming desktop
Quote:AMD Radeon R7 A360
is really really bad . It's not the desktop R7 360X but a low clock mobile GPU . It's not even as fast as R7 M360 of notebook

I'm pretty sure even the integrated Intel HD 530 (skylake) could beat it

The CPU is decent, but the GPU is still a mobile GPU… that's not what most people would call a desktop gaming computer. Really, just consider building it yourself. You'll get a better, overclockable CPU, a real powerful desktop GPU and anything else for half the price.

If you insist on buying a pre-built computer, well… that's your choice.

Where did you find an Alienware X51 with an i7-6700 and a 960M GPU? I don't see that combo anywhere.

Also, it would be much cheaper to build your own system.

pretty much any nvidia GPU. Doesn't even need to be particularly good or fast.
