    That doesn't sound good. You'll probably need to pick up a decent graphics card to pop in. Everything else seems ok, just add another 150-200 bucks for a decent card.

    I could be wrong though. Someone more knowledgeable should be along soon enough.

    Yes it will run at Medium graphics, but I am not sure how good or bad the performance will be to be honest.

    You may to google benchmarks for that graphics card.

    help

    i am trying to build a computer and i only have 600 dollars i can use, currently i have the following parts but would like to downgrade some parts but i dont know very much about compatibility and was wondering if someone can tell me what to get to make it cheaper

    case
    have

    cd/dvd(cheapest)
    http://www.newegg.ca/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16827118032

    Hard drive(i dont need more or less and this is cheapest i could find)
    http://www.newegg.ca/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16822136497

    motherboard(this is the best i could find but if a cheaper processor is possible then this would have to change aswell)
    http://www.newegg.ca/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16813131608

    ram(might have to change depends on motherboard)
    http://www.newegg.ca/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16820231166

    processor(this must be lowered, this is the most expensive part)
    http://www.newegg.ca/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16819103727

    video card(this could probably be lowered to a 500mb instead of 1gb)
    http://www.newegg.ca/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16814133266

    power(do i need this much?)
    http://www.newegg.ca/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16817341019

    please help me out i want to try to lower it to about 550$ and i dont need max graphics, medium is fine

    also, i noticed this combo deal is decent
    http://www.newegg.ca/Product/ComboDealDetails.aspx?ItemList=Combo.406251
    all i would need is to get a 500mb video card and i would be fine wouldnt i?

    Ugh. Gross. Don't buy the Triple-core processor, it's an abandoned technology because it doesn't work very efficiently and adds almost no power.

    Dual cores are fine but that's a fairly cheap one. You have room to increase the speed without increasing the price very much.

    Bigz,

    You are spamming the forum with computer topics. Stick to one thread. Stop creating duplicate topics.

    One and only warning. I've merged all the threads you made into one.
