HD (720p) : GRID on a $400 Gaming PC

[@TheGreenCrysis]

yup, you are right, thanks men :)

[@alaskanhybridgaming]

@romanul70 Of course it will. WoW was made for mid end PC's in 2004 this was a high end PC around that time.

[@omgzLAZERpewpew]

Yes.

[@trabujar]

yes that would be great i had some parts in mind but im new to building my own but this is what i came up wih Mobo:ECS GF8200A Motherboard HD:Caviar Blue Hard Drive - 500GB, 7200rpm CPU Cooler:Zalman CNPS7500 Drive:MSI DH-20AL 20X DVDRW Drive RAM:Wintec Ampx 2048MB PC6400 Card:Radeon HD 4670 CPU:AMD Athlon X2 7850 Black Edition Case:Rosewill Wind Knight

[@omgzLAZERpewpew]

4670 is what I meant, but remember that 9 series GPUs are essentially 8 series GPUs.

[@omgzLAZERpewpew]

Vista x64. Now I currently run Windows 7 x64. Runs great.

[@omgzLAZERpewpew]

Yes, COD4 runs on max with no lag.

[@Moneybagz2243]

@cml4456 that is complete overkill.

[@MikeW259]

@omgzLAZERpewpew where did you get your copy of windows? Im looking for a cheap copy :P

[@omgzLAZERpewpew]

GTA4? Yes indeed, pretty well. Though, not maxed I would assume. And yes, I run many CS4 apps and they all work smoothly.

[@omgzLAZERpewpew]

lol sweet. what psu do you have

[@lorddresefer]

@amindumaru lol no actually 1440X900

[@trabujar]

im buildin this for sure how much did the power supply cost though i have a 500 watt psu already i was thinkin about using that money to buy an os if it was for the right price

[@omgzLAZERpewpew]

yeah but when i got it the 4850 was $30 more

[@omgzLAZERpewpew]

I wouldn't agree. I don't care about running crysis because I don't particularly enjoy the gameplay. Every other game I've tried runs on max, and I didn't waste a lot of money.

[@trabujar]

also im planning to use hdmi as my audio/video output any tips on that? its the only thing my tv will accept and i dont have the money for a new monitor

[@omgzLAZERpewpew]

i would keep your 500w, but for 400, you can probably get an even better pc now. i can build a list of components if you want.

[@omgzLAZERpewpew]

i think you missed the point. i was trying to buy this with the best performance:price ratio. I don't have $1400 laying around.

[@sk8skeeskeewee]

are you running windows 7? please reply

[@Dra60oN]

ofc it can i run cod2 on pc ati radeon 9600xt and intel celeron 1.8 running at 1.94...with 1 gb ram on best resolution

[@omgzLAZERpewpew]

Ultra, 4xAA, 1280x720

[@theeclownbro]

Please dont get offended if i say will it run crysis

[@DanStap]

whats better 4670 or 4830?

[@ninjaturtle205]

people say consoles are better than pc cuz we dont need to spend a thousand dollars well this proves it a 400$ pc giving equal performance and plus u need to buy a pc anyway so spend a little more and GAME!

[@AFailProduction7]

Will this run minecraft good with and without recording cuz I have prob around $400

[@swordysan]

would this run WoW on Ultra?

[@putsipa]

Amd x2 250, 2 GB DDR2 800mhz, Nvidia GT240, 320 GB Sata II, Antler 375, 400watt PSU... thats what im going to get with 399 euros

[@1Scorch01]

BRO PLEASE SEND ME A LINK TO THIS COMPUTER!!

[@lorddresefer]

@cml4456 i can run crysis on max settings as well as assassin's creed 2 on max settings with a pc i built for 350-400 bucks

[@FunnyCountry]

My pc Amd phenom 9650 Chieftec 500W Msi 4830 1gb only for 548$

[@jayboy81101]

No, but if you know how to set up a computer right you could probably get mid-high out of it.

[@michaelwalsh7952]

for 100 bucks the best card is 4770, then you should get a 4850 or get a 4830 an OC it.

[@TheGreenCrysis]

can i run it on medium? CPU: Pentium Dual Core T4500 2,3Ghz GPU: Chipsets GS45(2x) RAM: 3GB

[@omgzLAZERpewpew]

The 4830 should be a lot better. The 9600GT competes with a 3670. Look at 9800GT from nVidia if you're looking for a good competitor. 9800GT and the 4830 both are about the same except in a few games. Crysis is better on a 9800GT, and Call of Duty and such are better on the ATi. Depends on what you play.

[@786arslan]

cn you believe it that i am getting a phenom 9600 and 9600gso 512mb with 2gb ddr2 800mhz 500 watt 250gb sata lame asrock mobo jus under £250!!!!! (about $416.97)

[@jjwebb18isgod]
