I'm considering to buy this computer but I want to make sure that its good and has everything in it that it will need.

I want to be able to run games like Crysis, Modern Warfare 2, Age of Conan, etc.

Also, please tell me if this price sounds correct for the specs it has. The computer is $860 USD.

These are the specs:

Intel Core i5 760 Processor (4x 2.80GHz/8MB L3 Cache)
4 GB [2 GB x 2] DDR3-1600 Memory Module
NVIDIA GeForce GTS 250 - 1GB (single card)
ASUS P7P55 LX Motherboard
600 Watt - Power Supply
750 GM Hard Drive --16M Cache, 7200 RPM, 3.0Gb/s


Also I'm curious as to if a Liquid CPU Cooling System is better/worse then a Thermaltake SpinQ CPU Cooing Fan System.

Thanks in advance for any help / comments!
 
youll be able to run it, not on the most highest settings on crysis, but you should be able to run it on high settings...

Liquid cooling would cool your system a lil better, but will cost more.

Actually his system is better than mine and I can run Crysis on the highest settings just fine. You just have to have a DX10 or DX11 operating system to enable the settings....

P.S. My specs: ECS GF8200A, 2GB DDR2 667, AMD Athlon 64X2 7850 Black Edition OC @ 3.0Ghz, EVGA GTS 250 512mb, Sigma Focus 700w PSU, Windows 7 32 bit.

there is no way a 250 will run crysis, even with no AA, on the highest settings and still get good frames. i doubt it would even be able to run the gamer settings at 45 fps even on 1280x1024.
 
You'd be surprised how nippy the GTS250 actually is. It's a huge improvement over a 240, at any rate :P Crysis should run fine (30fps+) on medium settings w/ 4xAA 4xAF.
Besides, the rest of his system is strong. Although if I was him I would have gone AMD with a phenom II X4 then use the money saved on a 5770.

i doubt it will handle 4x AA on medium settings (and still get playable framrates). although i guess it might be able to hit 30+ for the most part.
 
Like mentioned it will run the games,But not on high settings or get all that great frame rates....id scrap the idea of getting water cooling and put what you would have spent on the water cooling towards a better graphics card.

Look into getting something like a HD 5850 OR GTX 460 1GB if you want the best experience with those games.
