1. well, the homework will hardly even get the blood pumping. it may even be snoozing during it the TV will get the blood pumping, and, depending on the quality of the picture, may even raise the heat a little the games..... what games do you have in mind? if your looking for brand-new games with massive requirements and DX10 capability, while running Vista, you may want to get a 8800 GTS (320MB or 640MB versions, pick one) for better framerates, and maybe another GB RAM otherwise, it looks pretty nice and the monitor is probably good for your purposes just use the DVI port much better image quality
