this pc shud be affordable and if people know companies that make a computer that can run it well please post up :).

Got a general budget? For some people, $700 is cheap...others it's more like $400.

Do you need an operating system with it?


edit: Also, I'm assuming you're from the US?
 
i just need the case and contents i ahve a monitor OS and a mouse
500 - 600
i read online 500$ pcs can play games well so id like to keep it around 500
 
Check out cyberpowerpc.com. Lots of pre-designed configurations, and limitless opportunities for just the right build. Really cheap in comparison to most other companies. Pretty comparable to ordering parts individually and building yourself.
 
^ nah man...if he's willing to build it himself, there's no reason to pay more to have someone else do it.

I'll have a build up in a few minutes. Doing one for someone else right now.

However, I think you'll be able to afford an even better system if you buy it on black friday. They always have awesome deals.

Oops, forgot about that...I'll fix it.

Yes, a PSU upgrade would seem to be in order. The one that's there would power the build just fine, though.

Since that adds some $$$ to play with, I'll re-tool the build...it should come out a bit more powerful. I'll edit the new one into this post.

That'll give you a pretty good system...you can even crossfire a second 5750 later on.

Team makes good RAM, sir. Some of the best for overclocking, so says Bomberboy. Uses the same IC's as Ripjaws, IIRC.

If it was some of the best for overclocking, you'd think at least one person would have purchased a set from Newegg... :P

Considering it has a Lifetime Warranty, I guess I might gamble. Maybe...:cool:
 
Was more for TS's sake...I didn't want him to think I'd cheaped out on something there.

I've heard of them too, but I'm not the super genius that remembers everything and digs up information that nobody else here can find. :P People trust Bombers word on hardware more than just about everyone else on the forum...I'm just a random in that respect.
 
Team is ok memory. But that set takes 1.65 voltage just for 9-9-9-24 timing, not very good. The G Skill in Bodaggit23 link is better. 1.5 voltage with the same timing. Plus it will do T1 too.
