[QUOTE="magic_dragon"]Thanks but i think ill have enough memory, i can always upgrade. I got all this at overclockers.co.ukswehunt

Yep, 2GB is fine enough for all games, but 4GB is better ;) the difference is in loadingtimes, specially in games that save and load big maps like crysis.

You have made a good complete build that can take on all games just fine, the only thing i could say is like other have mentined about the P35, a P45 is sligthly better, and the case: you could get a cheaper one, like 900 or even 300, all your stuff will fit anyway :P have fun with the rig anyway!

Thanks, im getting a cheaper gaming case (900) but unfortunately teh P45 is out of stock...gota wait...

think about it: do you really want to spend that much to mainly play a game that has crappy multiplayer and a campaign mode that doesn't last very long? let's be rational here.PotatoSandWitch

I meant I was looking to build a computer powerful enough to run a game with simlilar specs to Crysis - one of the highest requirements available for any game at the moment so you know roughly what I'm after. I thought that would be obvious...

Ok any particular reason why one and not the other? Just value for money? Any advice is appreciated.

Im currently trying to build my own computer, and dont know much about what parts I should get and was just wondering if you guys could help me. This motherboard and graphics card seemed decent, but I might be wrong. Im planning on spending around £500 for decent comp (so that it can play Crysis mainly) and im just buying the first parts.

Thanks

Graphics card

Motherboard

I could be wrong since im new at this so please dont slate me.
