It will run any game at high, med and low.
Just not at all resolutions.
It won't run crysis at max at high res, probably, but that game is just poorly optimized.

The computer by itself is good, but i wonder what's the price ( in dollars ) so i can tell you if it's worth it buying it pre-build

[Sour]

From the looks of it, it's a very good computer. But you should raise up that Hard Drive space.....160 GB might not be enough.

Ya he can, let me break down the price of the components:

CPU 170$
Ram 90$
Power Supply 100$
Video card 465$
Hdd 50$
Dvd reader/burner 30$
Some mother board 60$
A key for windows 150$
Some cheap ass case $30$

Total: 1150

[Nante]

200 of each tax we have 2 max almost 400 that means we are at 1500 $

well I would say the cpu is a waste just get a dual core becuase quad core has really no support in games at all so a dual core can out preform it.

I would spend 70 bucks on the AMD anthlon 5400+ black edition then overclock it to 3.4 GHZ.

also just get a ATI 4870 it's really all you need to play any game at any setting

my 8800 gt can play any game at any setting just fine.

even crysis plays well on max settings 1680x1050 with 4x AA although I did overclock my card to the max capabilities.

also you can **cough** get windows ****cough*** torrent ****choke***.......die...

all im asking if is the computer is good not getting another spec . 8800 gtx or gt have almost the same price and less power and raw . now back to the question is it good or bad ? not asking for another spec thank you . Nante

i say it's good and can play any game out there on max specs just fine.

but it a big waste of money (and a 8800 gt is around 125 USD not even close to the price of a 280) but I still say go with building your and save lots of money. ( oh and get a 4870 instead or a 4870 x2 which easily beats the 280 and cost around the same amount)

4870x2 cost more over here it will add 100$ more to the expense to what i see
