Recommendations.

True, but I don't wanna buy some crap which will break in a week or so.. So I'm still not too sure about what to buy. But after looking at all these parts you and Ted posted, they are indeed quite good. The CPU and Gcard is going to be bought for sure.


Also, the RAM is still worth buying, as 2GB won't be too good.

In the past RAM was one of the most expensive parts in the PC, now it's much cheaper compared to the past and I would definitly recommend 8GB ram.

Alright, just gotta make sure that all the parts fits and so on.

If your not sure about the motherboard be it the price you are more bothered about you can't go wrong with the "Lower end" Asrock motherboards such as the H61M/U3S3. The only thing that niggles me is that they still have VGA, PS2 and PCI... come on were not in the 90's though I make an exception for DVI.

On the plus side it has SATA3, USB3 and there is also the possibility of using socket 775 coolers on the board as well.

Alright, just gotta make sure that all the parts fits and so on.

All parts will fit don't worry about that, just make sure you have a suitable case for all of it.

Alright, then I don't have anything to worry about.  And the case is not a problem. It's big enough. :p

Meh, I'm a fan of AMD myself, and AMD usually are cheaper, and have more special offers, but your choice.

Just to give an idea of RAM imporance. I have a GTX 280, for few days I only had 2GB RAM, I benchmarked it. When I increased it to 4GB it doubled the Graphical Capability.

However, remember the law of diminishing returns, eventually you will be paying tens of thousands of kronos or whatever just to get a 1fps increase.

However, Ted's idea of a setup looks pretty good.
