    Help build PC.......again.

    Yes everyone, another thread on helping someone build a PC. So I would like a little help picking out stuff to build a new gaming PC. I want to create a PC that will be able to run Battle Field 3 on all high settings. Now, I'm wondering, how much is the least amount of money I can spend to achieve this goal. If you guys want a cap on how much I'm willing to spend, I'd say $800 is probably the max. Note that I don't need a monitor, keyboard, or a mouse. So can anyone help me build something that's gonna last me? Battlefield 3 will probably be the last game I buy for a while since I'll still be playing CS 1.6 for many years to come. So, can anyone help?

    Shop CyberPowerPC gaming PCs. Customize your gaming PC with the latest hardware or select a prebuilt gaming computer.


    It's probably good enough as-is, but feel free to go nuts.

        =>Maybe add the 110$ i7 processor + Pro OC.

        or

        don't wanna read everything for motherboard... -.-
        =>GT520graph card could be improved though if you wanna play games.
        Hard drive is Very good, plenty of space. (may be downgraded though, its alot)
        Anti-Vibrations fan mount if you don't like noisy comps.

            As far as processors go, i7's barely outperform i5's but cost way more. Plus the hyperthreading i7's have can work against you sometimes.

              Well, for gaming, 2nd option was the best for sure. i7's for when you have enough money. Was just an option :3

                I get you bro, don't worry.

                Sounds like the OP wants to keep this as cheap as possible, and I am a huge jew myself when it comes to hardware

                  What resolution do you play at? What brands do you prefer: AMD or Intel in processors, and NVIDIA or ATI?

                      Only this and you're ready to play. Seriously the comp itself is pretty good. Add this and you get to *800$, nice gaming experience.

                        Resolution really doesn't matter to me. I mean come on, I'm used to shitty graphics, I play CS 1.6 lol. But if I'm going to spend this amount of money, I want to be able to get the best bang for my buck. So if I'm going to play Battlefield 3, I want to play on the highest resolution possible, with all graphic settings on the highest.

                          Go for graph crad I said then... drives are already good. I'd add anti-vibrations for 9$ too...

                            @ Superfreak; Give me a budget and I can price out a cheap build for you.

                            "Oh, just my cock." Replied Foil.
                            "That just will not do." was keywii's response as she lunged for the scissors, pulled the blades apart, and clamped them down on the base of foil's shaft. Blood start gushing out of the wound where his penis used to be.
                            "NOOOOOOOOOOOO!" Yelled Foil in horror.
                            "Don't worry. I'm a wizard" uttered Keywii. And with that, Foil's penis grew back.
