Help on New COmputer Build

[Fernade10]

Ok, so I need a pretty good computer that will run latest games on mid setting my budget is, less than three hundred dollars. I already have the monitor, keyboard, speakers, and a mouse. The point of this thread is so you guys can show me how to build my computer and the cheap, good supplies I can use. I need to make a computer that is good for documents and gaming not such hardcore gaming probally 1 or 2 games that are good.


Thanks For all the Support.

Wait: What games? Like are we talking age of empires, wow, crysis...?

Even with low end parts $300 is a little tight. Im assuming your american? (i ask because you would not be able to build one for under 300 in canada with an hdd)\

The point of this thread is so you guys can show me how to build my computer

You need to know how to build it?....It would probably be easier to just look at a guide then one of us explain it. But honestly it is pretty straight forward.

Yes I am American. I know that in Canada alot of things are more expensive. And yes I wan to run Wow, Crysis, etc.

your not gonna be able to do crysis with a $300 budget. Im not even sure if you would be able to with onboard video (because that is what you will need with that budget.)

Before i recommend some parts one more question: Do you need a monitor, keyboard, mouse, speakers?

You will not be able to put together a computer for <$300 that will run Crysis in any playable form.

Picture Unrelated.

You have to do onboard video. End of story. No Crysis, no how. Not for 300 bucks. But we can at least get WoW.

$325.08, then you get 10 bucks off on a rebate. Includes shipping. Best you're going to get for 300 bucks. Couldn't get it any cheaper than that without using crappy parts.

You can double the RAM for an extra 12 bucks: Newegg.com - G.SKILL 4GB (2 x 2GB) 240-Pin DDR2 SDRAM DDR2 800 (PC2 6400) Dual Channel Kit Desktop Memory - Desktop Memory

That case is the best you can get with that combo deal, 40 bucks and free shipping.

^i would have to agree with that build. Nice build hikari

It'll run Crysis.. 10-15FPS if at 640x480, All Low (I would sadly know the experience) w/ an X2 4600+..

Yours will do like 12-17FPS which is playable by Crapsis' standards

 

[Luke]

^ i don't think you can even consider that "running" crysis

Lol, Vern. Thank you for clarifying.
