Mine cost less than $500 and plays every game I have and will definitely handle those coming out later this year that I am looking forward to purchasing. Granted, mine was an upgrade and I built it myself -- down with pre-built I say, get your hands around a screwdriver and have some fun!:)
I have to say I agree - as one of those women who happens to be addicted to The Sims:) Then again, I'm a geek-girl and proud of it, subscribe to PC Gamer and built a game machine just to prepare for upcoming games like The SIMS 2:> I know.. sick kitty.
Bored girlfriend should definitely be encouraged to find something she can get into, game or not, when you're gaming. Also, there should be some compromise - if you really love this significant other (male or female) there is a way to satisfy you both.. work it out. Just remember to make non-game time for each other too.

I like your girlfriend! Though usually I'm referred to as "Goddess" ;) [ Old MUSH lingo here, no deity complex! ]
