Great parts, although depending on the resolution, you may want a more powerful video card. The 9800GT is good for anything upto 1440x900 IMO. Beyond that, performance starts to drop, assuming you have maxed out all the image quality options.

Also, the PSU that comes with the case is trash. Get a better one. My cousin's husband bought a PC with that PSU and it turned out that it was rated for 500W at 24C, and actually put out around 300W or so when he tested it with a Kill-A-Watt. The efficiency is pretty rubbish (probably due to lack of Active PFC) and it has been phased out, since the manufacturer's site no longer displays it. I advise getting this PSU as a great option for a really good price.

Everything else looks fine.

ok thankyou very much for you reply it helped me a lot


by the way what graphics card is better

The ATI Radeon HD 4850 should be your first choice. A GeForce 9800GTX+ would be the best alternative to the Radeon card.

Go for whichever is cheapest.

even better

well you know if you already have a computer you can actually\
get software and get XP

$999
