I've built a very great PC for $614, it's now $584. If you want the wishlist, I'll send it to you.

Overclocked E2160 (Equal to E6750 at 3.2 Ghz)
2GB G. Skill RAM
P35 DS3L Motherboard
HD3850 Graphics card (or 8800gt if you're really into gaming)
250GB HDD
DVD - Burner
Centurion 5 case
430Watt PSU

Enjoy if you decide to build, the PC you listed sucks beyond belief.

That's a cheap computer right there


It's impossible to use the bathroom in Denton's house, as not even his toilet paper takes shit from anyone.

I dont think you could handle some of the next gen games. Such as Oblivion.

Nowadays for optimum performance you need more than that. Crysis just completely fucked over the benchmark for needed computer performance, and it will only continue to increase.

You need at late 7 series NVidia card (7800+), a dual core CPU, any will do because they are easily overclocked to about 2.8GHz. 1Gb RAM is enough for a lot of games but not the latest ones and the ones that are still to come out, so 2 would be the best way to go.

I put my computer together myself and it's got a Gigabyte motherboard, GeForce 8600GT, dual core Intel CPU overclocked to 2.8GHz and 2Gb RAM, it runs Crysis on mostly high settings.

I will bet money you can get the same performance for about half the price if you buy the parts and build it yourself.

haha, even my older computer could run that game. and that computer had a shitty mobo, proc (1,6ghz lol) and 7300gt card.

the differences between my old computer and the new one it's that it has a better proc (2,6ghz) and a better mobo, more ram memory and a better HD. how it's going not run games i can already run with a computer that runs almost twice as slow?

keep in mind, the computer is just a computer to pull me thru for another year. and it's cheap as shit. the guy who build this computer about a year ago spend 400 euros building it. so it's pretty cheap in my opinion, and it's a good deal.
