LOL!!pump,what machine do u recon u need to run crisis at full gamer spec?i have got a 9600gt nvidia g card but i think my machine needs an upgrade

haha, not sure dude... the machine is not that important, well when I say not that important I mean compared to the graphics card... a dual core should be ample, a core 2 duo would be better. 2gb ram should be enough.

screen card, you need some serious power. you need to check up the new ati or nvidea cards.. that 9600 would run it on the lowest level if I can remeber correctly. and honestly not cool playing the game on that.

well i was told(when i got the card) it was a good one,its not that bad i can run it now at medium spec at 800x600 but i am thinking cos i only have 2 gigs of ram and a small processor i need to go i7 or quad core maybe...

i would personally go for a i5 750 cpu. Excellent gaming grunt at a good price.

naaa, i'm sure the ram is fine... if you check your recources while running the game you can see how much ram is actually being used...

fakey_AK what are we looking at price wise? retail? i am registered with all the pc supplier but i am just looking at top end pricing? R5000?

hmmmm ok i think i need a whole new machine and g -card

I speced the prces of the top of range gaming machine and it cost me 12k from Pinnacle, similar prices from Sahara, etc.... but this machine had it all, gaming, ram, top graphics card, etc... that is just the price of the box without a screen.

hmmm i wouldnt go sahara but thats me, well i don't need top spec ram etc,i am happy with normal shit that will run games well....just need a decent card,hdd,ram and board and chip... u think its do able for about 7? i mean i know u get 1gb ram modules for R300 and then u get the ones for R900 i am happy for the cheapy ones

Geez, where do you guys find the time to game? never mind the spare cash... I havent found time to play a game in years... My pc is so horribly out of date it couldnt even run any of these new games

sheesh dude, you can get ram for 2gb at 250 bucks.. 7k yup... just make sure your processer matches ur motherboard. hdd, doesn't have too much effect on gaming..

yea i know i was using it as an example pump yea i just am sick of having a donkey on my desk,i am looking for a stallion

I have a 18k gaming PC - I play Crysis wars, COD, Battlefield bad company heroes.

Awesome games.

I run crysis on the 2nd highest specs, run the res at 1024 x 2048 or sumtin like that 4 x AA.

Here my specs.

core 2 duo 3.16ghz
Asus P5N - T Deluxe Motherboard
2 x 9800GTX+ MSi Graphics cards (running SLI)
750 watt power supply from corsair
4gigs of ddr2 1066 denominator ram
Coolermaster HAF 932 case

Bought this Rig 2yrs ago.

ill dig up some screen cards that pinnacle sell. saw some nice ATI ones... my machine has 2 2tb hard disks, etc.. so that is allready a huge chunk off the price. will see if i can find the spec.. but id throw 8gb ram in that box, a REALLY GOOD screen card, semi ok motherboard, quad core processor... and you probabbly looking 7/8k mark.. .thing to remeber is, these cards require some hectic power, so you need to make sure your PSU on the box is pushing out enough unf unf for the card to work, or you need to purchase another case + power supply. with that you might as well look at a really decent case that has serious cooling.. if you keep your box cold that machine will idle at running intense tasks.

still a power house, and you can clock those processors up nicely./

Yeah had it running at 4GHZ but it overheats quite lakka but i still have the old standard cpu cooler will prob need a juiced up one.

yup, have a guy pushing a 2.1 to a 3.6 and having no issues what so ever, but has a freakin hardcore cooling system

Ya when okes start adding watercooling to their PC's - Crazyness that water runs thru the PC lol Wud make me stressed to the max.

snok my pc is watercooled. Cpu running at 20 degrees c. Overclocked just over 30. Dj i just did a quick search. For 7k u can get a decent gaming pc. And if u can buy from the suppliers direct u can maybe only spend 5k.

well i got 7-9 to spend,i am looking at 7k for components + vat = 9k

Ok you looking for something along these lines

MSI N275GTX-MD1792, 1792MB 16X PCI-E (DVI x1, DB15, HDMI, 3 Way SLi) DDR3 448Bit, GPU Fan, Dual Mon Support, 500Watt (Lightning) R 2 695

MSI N295GTX-2D1792 , 1792MB 16X PCI-E (DVIx 2, 4 Way
SLi) DDR3 512Bit, GPU Fan, Dual Mon Support, 680Watt R 4 995


Or this MSI R4890-Cyclon OC 1GB ATI 16X PCI-E (DVI, DB15, HDMI) DDR5 256Bit, GPU Fan, Dual Mon Support, Crossfire, 650Watt R tba (that price if I remeber was around 3k)


CPU:

Intel ® Core 2 Quad Q9505 Yorkfield 2.83 GHz 6Mb OD Cache .045um 1333FSB 95 Watt R 1 929

Or you can go this route

Intel ® Quad Core i7-920 Bloomfield 2.66 GHz 8Mb OD Cache .045um 4.8GT/S with Hyper Threading, 130Watt R 2 549


you can either get these 800mhz ram

Apacer 2048MB DDR2 240-Pin DIMM, 1.8V [DDR6400] 800 Mhz Limited Lifetime warranty R 309

or kick ass gaming ram

Apacer 2048MB DDR3 240-Pin DIMM, 1.5V [DDR10600] 1333 Mhz Limited Lifetime warranty R 371

or you can just go crazy and get Apacer Giant 3 x 2GB DDR3 240-Pin DIMM, 1.65V [PC 12800] - Retail Kit 1600Mhz Limited Lifetime warranty, Heatsink

I think that is 6gb ram and came in at around 900 bucks.

drive

WD CAVIAR GP 1.5TB IntelliPower 32 MB Cache, SATAII R 1 089

A motherboard nothing over this is needed

MSI Intel P55-CD53, 8CH Audio, Gb LAN, No VGA 6.4GT/s 16X PCI-e x1, 3xPCI, 3xPCI-e 1x, 4xDDR3 1333, SATAIIx8 Raid R 1 085

then you just need a case, you can take your dvd writer out or just buy a new one... around LG GH22LS40 DVD Writer - DVD±R 22x, DVD±RW 8x, DVD-Ram 12x, DVD-Rom 16x, CD 48x32x48, DVD±DL 12x - Black (Retail) - LightScribe R 195

prices are probabbly allot cheaper, thats outdated by 3 months...

well if u want i can make u a list of components to get with there normal retail price. Then u can get that at a cheaper price from the supplier themself.

Do yourselves a favour and buy a ps3. I used to have to upgrade my pc every 6-12months just to keep up with the games.

Since my ps3 I havn't upgraded in almost 2 years and ps3 has zero lag, awesome online play and also cool for mutiplayer when your friends come around. It also plays blurays. I used to be a console game hater but since I got the ps3 its just been awesome. And when new games come up you know that they will always run on 100%, not like computers where each game requires better specs
