    Radeon 5400 OC'ing?

    I use http://www.zcom.co.nz but there isnt much variety of decent parts , it states everything is shipped for free on newegg would that be to New Zealand? otherwise it shouldn't cost too much more to get them to ship it as there parts are cheaper and better.

    Is this a good computer for the price?

    GTA SA has really low recommended system requirements, you should be able to run at the games maximum fps whilst in full resolution and detail with that setup :)

    was running a foxconn a6vmx am2/am2+ mobo with 4gb ram and that GPU but have had the mobo for about 4-5 years!
