Hey guys, this is my second time venturing outside the V sub-forum so don't ban me if I'm posting this in the wrong place. I'm going to buy a pre-made Gaming PC and I want to know if the parts can max out games like Skyrim and Crysis 2 and still run smoothly. Also can you tell me if I'm getting value out of this.

Parts:

Intel i3-3220 3GB

8GB DDR3 1333mhz RAM

1TB 7200rpm

Nvidia GTX 650 1GB

Windows 7

No SSD

 

The price is $590, should I buy?

Most definitely not, i3 is average, 650 is very average and the price for all those parts is average, you should build your own PC/

You can build a better system for the same amount of money if you just build your own pc dude, If you need help look at Ryans thread Here.

The PC is pre made. Can anyone direct me to the right parts? My budget is €500, around $600 I guess. And if you're going to suggest, please know what you're talking about.

Get an i5 3570 (if your going to overclock than a 3570k is for you) and get a gtx 570. The cpu and gpu is around $200 each. You could get better ram but you should be fine.

Then I would need RAM, a hard drive, a case, a disk drive, a power supply, a motherboard and Windows. That's not on the cards.

I'll put together a build with all parts and links to parts when I get home if you give me a budget and what games you want to play.

You're living in the U.S yes?

M'Afraid not, I live in Ireland. It's all the same though.

That's fine, you still need to give me a budget, then I can help you get the best value for money.

 

I also need the games you might want to play.

He already stated that he wants to play Skyrim and Crysis 2, and by those two I guess he wants to run most of the new games.

His budget could also be determined by the price of the PC he wanted to buy (somewhere around 600$ is my guess)

Ah,I should have re read the OP, admittedly I missed that.

Yeah well for the budget I thought I would ask anyway in case it was a little higher but you saw a bargain. Unfortunately for you I am lacking a laptop charger, the cord is frayed, so I am posting from mobile and putting together a build on this would take like 3 times as long...that's three hours.

 

As soon as I get a new cable I can put something together, unless someone else wants to be nice and do it
