Author Topic: Good gaming PCs?  (Read 1456 times)

You can get a pretty powerful computer for around 700$ these days as long as you're willing to build it.

thing is, im clueless.

My currency is US dollar, so I might sound stupid.

Maybe a Dell studio XPS, I have one, and it is awesome. it is the 8300.

Macs are nice, but expensive and the operating system is not compatible with most games.


Infact, am building my own PC with a friend

getting lovey tower + something that can run sims 3 and fallout.

I bought the latest loving graphics card from NVidia and 5gb of ram, and on Fallout (on lowest settings) looking at anything bigger than a room (I.E. the Capital Wasteland) gives me 10fps.

You must have a terrible Processor or some stuff.

Well your problem is obviously the fact that you don't have a processor.





Also Hitman, if you want me to throw together some parts for you, I can later. I'm in class right now. But I'm forewarning you, it will be from either Newegg or Tigerdirect, so it'll be in USD. I can convert the currencies but it won't do much for you because you'll still have to pay in USD or if you decide to buy the parts in Europe, the prices may vary.

I got a new laptop for Christmas which runs games really well, I stayed off of my main PC for at least 2 weeks because it was so awesome. http://www.dell.com/us/p/inspiron-15r/pd

What I meant is do you want me to help you find parts online, so that everything would be compatible with everything else. Not to buy it assemble it and then you pay me.

Okay. I'm doing homework right now, I'll be done in like 30 min. So I'll look for stuff then :D


Does the case have to have the side panel?

Do you want liquid cooling or fans?

I'm not sure, maybe a slient fan, Im not sure about the case, how much RAM will i need?

I'd advise at least 4 GB of RAM these days.
