When I tested on CAN I RUN IT... Can You RUN It? if it dosen't let u see the test ill tell u the only part i barely passed was cpu there was a bar that said min my bar stopped at the little one after min..

unless you have some serious upgrading planned then that PSU is overkill. Swap it out for something cheaper and spend the extra $$ upgrading the 4870 to a 4890.

BTW, a little grammar goes a long way, I don't really understand what you're blathering about so I'm just assuming you want us to evaluate the build.

That's a pretty good build for a gamer. I would go ahead and buy/build that.

Good Luck.

Looks good.. I wouldn't get that high end of a PSU though unless you plan another HD 4870 in the future, also I wouldn't recommend an Open Box DVD-Drive.. also a note.. Windows 7 will be coming out in a few months, so why not keep using XP until then?

iceyc0ld · 06-12-2009, 04:58 PM

Lol but really... I was just getting an idea.. so how much is windows 7 gonna be? I am not build this now lol I was just seeing my dreams...

Also hey about the TF2 that was at the end of my post.. what do u think it could be.. like another thing is that when u play tf2 when theres heavy fire and everything whole bunch of stuff blowing is that gonna be original lag like not freezing like .. very quick unsmooth gaming..

vernong1992 · 06-12-2009, 04:58 PM

Probably around the same price as Vista (and it will be in the same packages as Vista, aka Basic, Premium, Business and Ultimate).

I think it would be personally worth the money to get it,

iceyc0ld · 06-12-2009, 05:19 PM

Ok so what u think about the TF2 problem?
