Hiya guys and gals.
I would very much appreciate any input from anyone on this.
First of all, am i right in saying its cheaper to buy computer parts seperatley then building the computer yourself, rather than buying a ready made computer from say Dell?
Second of all, im looking to buy a new PC, as i only have a Dell laptop with Intergrated graphics and its not great for games. I have some basic knowledge of computer components. I know about CPU's, RAM and have some knowledge on graphics cards, but have no idea about all the other stuff, like power supplies and all the other bits and bobs i have to buy.
Could you guys give me a rough figure as to how much a computer would cost that could run Counter Strike Source on top graphics, all extra settings enabled at a resolution of 1400x900.
And still maintain an FPS of above 100fps for 8-16 player games. And prefrably no lower than 60fps for big 32 v 32 player games.
I realise that you would probably need quite an impressive machine to run that. But do you guys know the cheapest price i could get that for (in GBP £). And would you mind giving me a rundown of all components i would need.
Would really appreciate any input from anyone.
Thanks.
