Computer specs questions


Hi i am thinking about getting a new comp to run planetside 2 and was wondering if you guys think this comp will run it? If you dont think it will run it please comment an affordable comp that will run it.

Re: Computer specs questions


it'll run planetside but you are getting ripped off with this build. the cpu is to big the gpu is very slow, 12 gigs of ram is not needed. win7 is debatable, are you a student ? most universitys offer free versions of win 7 , oder maybe you have a version lying around your house. all these things (except gpu lol) bump up the price without giving you noticable performance increases

Do you know any one who can build a pc. if you just buy parts for 1k your pc will be sooo so much better. You could try it yourself it is really easy.

That graphics card kinda really sucks, you won't be playing on high settings.

Dropping the i7 to an i5, going with 8gb of ram and upgrading the graphics card significantly would put you better off.

That's not a monster by any means with that graphics card.

Re: Computer specs questions


yeah haha this really is no monster. you will be dissapointed that you spent so much money on a mediocre pc if you buy this. Keep looking.

Intel Core i5-3450 Boxed
ASRock H77 Pro4/MVP
8GB G.Skill 1333MHz CL9
GTX 670
be quiet! Straight Power E9 480W (KM)
Samsung SSD 830 128GB
Samsung F3 1000GB
LG GH24NS
Cooler Master CM 690 (II) or any case with enough space

if you buy only the parts this config will be around 1k euros (! dont know about prices in dollar but doubt it'll be alot more expensive)

look for those parts when your looking at a pre built pc , or like i said find someone that can build a pc and give him like 30 bucks for the 2 hours that are needed to assemble a pc !
