Hello there,
Is it possible to get some advice on a system
I felt I had to post because of the vasy array of hardware out there I'm completely baffled, sorry if my questions have been answered in other posts but wanted to get a full picture for myself
After a gaming PC, started playing me BF2 and have to run it all on low settings and it runs ok but sometimes can be a bit jerky...
I've never really had a PC before where I could run the game to it's full glory which is what I'm after
1. CPU
What features am I looking for here that are solely to make gaming the dog's danglies ?
Is it worth going to a 64Bit AMD or should I go Intel ?
Looking to spend around £140 - $260
2. Mobo
What's the ideal mobo nowadays, assuming 1 with PCI-X is it not worth going for SLI at all thinking about future proofing slightly or would it be better crossing this bridge when I came to it
What features am I looking for in a mobo
Looking to spend around £100 - $185
3. GFX Card
This is one thing that's baffling me alot I have no idea which would be ideal or what to look for
Looking to spend around £200 - $360
4. Memory
For ram is it worth going for DDR2 or DDR400 sufficient if say I got 1 GB
Looking to spend around £100 - $185
These are the 4 components I could really do with some help on, am I deviding me funds up where they are needed or do you think I should look to spending more or less out of the total on different items
Any reply twud be terrific
Cheers TIA
