Well, you really don't need a CD burner for a strictly gaming PC.
You would need a decent amount of high-speed RAM (at least 1 GB as previously mentioned), as well as a decent CPU. Go AMD for the CPU as they are the leaders in performance when it comes to games.
And of course, you'll need a very good video card. Both ATI and NVidia have some very good cards, the question is how much you'll pay.
However, going to FS/BB for a gaming system really is not a good idea. Their equipment is usually pretty generic with none of the high-end gear you're able to get if you build your own. A cursory look at FS's computer section reveals that none of their systems have a decent video card.
In short, high-end gaming computers and FS/BB are mutually exclusive. If you want a high-end system, my bf can build you one better than FS or BB can offer as he is a computer genius. PM me if you want.
