I need help building a fast computer.

hey vernong what do you think of this one? Newegg.com - ASUS VH226H Black 21.5" 2ms(GTG) HDMI Widescreen 16:9 Full HD 1080P LCD Monitor 300 cd/m2 1000:1 (ASCR 12000 : 1) Built in Speakers - LCD Monitors


Oh and what a bout a GPU Cooler? Should I get one of those? If so, wich do you recommend?

You should get a 22"@ 1680x1050 monitor, because you'll get a better FPS, and the quality of the picture is still great.

The Sapphire cooler is awesome.

As for a GPU cooler, I suggest just using the stock and turning the fan up if you don't mind a lot of noise.

Hey what framerate do you guys think I can run Crysis on max setting with my build?

 

[veg1992]

Haha, no rig can max out Crysis unless it has 3 GTX 280 SLI.. (well with a good FPS)

I'd say live with some on Medium, or play at all High at a Medium Res..

 

[1337_JohnN]

Screw Crysis, and get Crysis Warhead! xP

Better frames, and graphics. win-win.

 

[orion233]

I think Ill just take the monitor I have now and lower the res on the settings.

Just for jokes Im gonna list the my CURRENT PC Specs

CPU: Pentium 4 Processor 2.4Ghz
Ram: 512mb
Graphics Card:Radeon 9200 128 MB
HDD: 150 GB
+ 4 years of wear and tear from my older brother

I once ran Super Mario Brothers at 60 FPS

That can run Crysis? I had a similar rig with a 9600XT back in the day and couldn't even run Crapsis

 

[orion233]

I was thinking of getting Intel Quad core Q6600
instead of E8500

Its only 2 bucks extra should I just get that instead?

And will my Aprevia X-cruiser have enough room because its a mid tower?

I know I have alot of questions..
