CPU
Intel Core i5 650 @ 3.20GHz
Clarkdale 32nm Technology
RAM
8.0GB Dual-Channel DDR3 @ 665MHz (9-9-9-24)
Motherboard
Dell Inc. 0T568R (CPU 1)
Graphics
VL320M (1920x1080@60Hz)
AMD Radeon HD 7800 Series
Hard Drives
977GB Seagate ST31000528AS (RAID)
Optical Drives
HL-DT-ST DVD+-RW GH50N.

The video card does have HDMI.
Already have a G27 wheel/pedals.

Can you share the link to it? CPU is 4yrs old - don't know how good it is though, and if what MINIz said is true about it being more CPU intensive you may want to go with a newer one.

Graphic card description is vague:
"AMD Radeon HD 7800 Series" - okay great, but what model is it? otherwise you won't know the amount of RAM and speed it has, or memory bandwidth.

Running RAID is fine - I am assuming its RAID 0 not RAID 1 , but if something gets corrupted it will be annoying, if you want faster harddrive and still be reliable there are 128GB SSD's in the $70 range that will do the job and have a regular drive on the side for storage.

I am getting the feeling that a pre-built PC is your preference? Which is fine btw.
