You may want something better than an i3. Try an i5.
IIRC, Nal had an issue with that kind of graphics card too. But for that price, not bad at all.

nal has a gtx 560, not a 640

i would go quad core for a comp that will age better.

a quad core 1.6ghz is like far far better still, then a dual 3.2. might even be cheaper to. dunno

dont be fooled by bigger numbers

a good rule for me to build by, is that video card should be 3rd the total price. and cpu should cover like a 4th.
that would be for a budget comp though.

Ok Thank you for the info i will add the I5 and a better video card :)

So i added a Intel core i5 cc50p Ivy Bridge 3.1ghz (3.3ghz turbo) Quad core
and then i added a Geforce gtx 660 Ti 2gb 192-bit gddr5
Not it is at 852.90, That will take a long time ( i only get at least $7.50 a week)

cpu and graphics sucks, you didnt list a hdd/ssd, fans and case is irrelevant

/done


So i added a Hdd(a 1tb Seagate 7200 rpm 64mb Cache sata) and also just for more memory, i found these Slim 1TB USB 2.0 2.5" SATA External Hard Drive Disk, and buying 2 of them for 6.79 each

computer megathread

i'm pretty sure i have the same video card as you
oh yeah why not add in a pci wireless adapter
it's convenient as forget


You didn't list the RAM speed, which is kind of important.
