Ok, are you ever likely to play games more demanding than this one? If you're not, you can build a relatively cheap system to handle this game. http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16819116072 http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16813128356 http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16820145590 http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16822136073 http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16827136152 http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16814161262 http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16817371005 http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16811129042
yes, ill be playing more demanding games, now that i think about it. The only highend game that i can think of atm would be crisis... a system that can play that smoothly would be able to handle these specs... right?
Crysis is one of the most demanding games ever made. If you want to play Crysis on high settings, this build needs revising. Let's make it easier. What size monitor do you use, and what's your maximum budget? That way I can spec the best possible PC in your price range.
That's US dollars, correct? Age of Conan is not quite as demanding as Crysis, but it's not far off. 1500-2000 dollars is plenty to build a PC assuming it's just the PC, and it's a fair bit even if that includes the monitor as well.
yes U.S. Dollars. I see. thanks very much. No, I don't plan to replace my monitor. But, a pc that can run crysis smoothly would be nice.
No problem on that budget.
