I'm posting this here.. Because I believe it's a computer game question overall, and people here could help out alot. If It's wrong.. Move it please (Sorry Lana) I just am not 100% sure which forum...
I'm having a computer built for me, that I want to be able to play Directx 10 games good.. And Fluently... No crappy bad framing or graphics..
Now, I've had Mist help me create this computer, and I wanted to get a few opinions on it..
See, I'd like to slim the price down 100-200$ if POSSIBLE... but it would still have to allow me to play Bioshock/Crysis etc good.
I'm also using this computer as a main desktop.. Not just gaming..
Now here's how it's set up so far:
Keep in mind, I'm only making a tower.. I have all the other parts like a monitor, keyboard.. Etc.
