Thanks and that is a good price right and would be compatible with Crysis?

 

[ducis]

[Aloush]

Ok and thats the best i can get for my budget?

If you have extra £40, you can get a HD3850 which perform a lot better.

Thats a nice card ill take that into consideration

 

[daisymtc]

In order to save some £, you can consider down the RAM to DDR2 675 and to a 160GB HDD.

 

[Aloush]

Well the hard drive space i would need i am hoping to maybe even get 500GB-750GB if i can find it cheap

Do you guys think that is good?

Looks pretty good, you can definitely get a cheaper motherboard and ram though, and use the extra money to get a bigger hard drive.

 

[Aloush]

Suppose but i might put some extra money towards a 1 TB hard drive
