Btw Nate this is your laptop ?
www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16834230354

I would head to a similar one but with 8 gb of ram, maybe 500 or 750 Gb HDD, i can still change it, and a 17,1" screen.

Here's a fun fact to end the arguement from above: the human eye is only capable of seeing 62 fps. So don't strive to get 100 fps in games because its just a waste of money

So if I have a firmware cap at 60 FPS (60hz), no higher, it will only render 60fps at the most, now if you decide to turn to an area that has a lot of rendering to do, it gets hit with a FPS drop, and you get that awful lag, now if you had a card that runs cleanly at 100fps, and it has an FPS drop, it might drop down to 80 FPS, and you won't notice that FPS drop because no matter what you're seeing is 60 FPS.

A computer isnt something we can help you, we can suggest you stuff but maybe if the game you want doesnt work you should not get mad at us :P
I like ATI Radeon HD 6850 or ATI Radeon HD 6870 as videocard, AMD Phenom li x6 as processor and maybe 4gb or 8gb as ram but its all up to you what you want to buy :)

This is a gameplay of Battlefield 3 with that videocard and processor i told you :)


I have the Radeon HD 6870, it's pretty good. But the title of this video says it's the HD 6970 - much more expensive.

Its not even a card, its a chip in the motherboard. And mobile CPU and GPU are shit.

Oh well, atleast you have a new laptop.

Also, heed my warning, Don't get Ivy Bridge Processors if you plan on extreme overclocking.

Is it a good i5 ?

Btw is it possible that the CPU has already a GPU ?

It's okay, but it isn't unlocked, so you can't overclock

The CPU and GPU are two different things. Most Intel processors have graphics cores, "Intel HD Graphics ...."

Its something else than a GPU ?

Btw what ram you suggest me ? I thought about 8 Gb but don't know which to choose on newegg.
Seems like this one is not bad: http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16820231314

And what about the power supply ? For a medium pc, i mean i don't want a lame pc, but not the best gaming pc either, but atleast:
8gb ram or 16 but will it be compatible ?750 Gb - 1 Tb hard drive
i5,
a good graphics card.
a nice case, i thought this one
a cd burner for 30$ is enough ?

But for average 400-600 EUR max.

and 1 EUR = 1.25379 USD so lets say 750 USD is the maximal price i can give.


BTW:
Quote from: Dan_Nobleman on July 17, 2012, 23:51
My build, of course:
Case: Corsair 800D
CPU: Intel i7-3960x 6core (12 threaded) OCed to 4.8 GHz
Motherboard: ASUS Rampage Extreme IV
GPU: 3x ASUS  3GB 1GHz Reference 7970s (Replaced with custom watercooling blocks)
SSD: 4x Corsair ForceGT 240GB In RAID 0
HDD: 2x Western Digital Caviar Black 2TB in RAID 0
how much you paid for it ? Thats a fucking beast !

and ............
what about this ? http://secure.newegg.com/WishList/PublicWishDetail.aspx?WishListNumber=24855847

Another thing:
Those who plan to build their own computer, i found this:
http://en.wikibooks.org/wiki/How_To_Assemble_A_Desktop_PC
This a book wikipedia made. Its downloadeable on the right. it has 90 pages and there is (i think) all you need to know to build a desktop computer !
Hope it helps you !
