After years of wishing, I FINALLY bought my own computer:

I just want to know how well it will run some of today's games. Please be honest! :)

* GTX 460 1 GB

* 6GB DDR3 Corsair (1600)

* AMD Quad Core/3.2/'Black Edition'

*Some Gigabyte Motherboard

* Corsair 650W Power Supply

* Win 7 (64-bit)

I was really excited to finally buy a computer after years, literally, of wanting to build my own... So yeah, go ahead and tear away at it.

Thanks!

Thats a very nice PC. It should be able to run all of todays games with ease.

It's a very nice computer. You should be very happy.:) You said that you bought it, so I'm assuming that it was pre-built. Where'd you buy it from and how much did it cost?

I believe he means he means he was able to buy all the parts at last, given that he said he wanted to build his own for years. Afterall, NO prebuilt comes with all brand name parts.

When did he say that he wanted to build his own computer? I'm going to assume that he's posted about this in the past, in other threads.

I bought the parts, Im going to put it together myself.

I believe it costed around 850-900$

EDIT:

Post some pictures of the rig, OP.

Shouldn't have got 6GB RAM, AMD currently only supports dual channel, so its kinda being wasted.

Then the TC should have got 8GB instead of 6GB, not utilising dual-channel.

Ouch. Wish I would have researched about the RAM... Thankfully, I actually purchased the RAM online tonight - and just cancelled the order :[

Can anyone make any suggestions for 4GB DDR3 on Newegg, or any RAM for the matter? All input is much appreciated. Thanks, again!

*BTW Everything is setup and ready in my computer right now other than the hard drive, cd-drive, and RAM. I'll definately post some pics of it later... I'm so psyched to get to play with some decent graphics for once :]

This should be fine.

G.Skill Ripjaws are a good choice as are the Corsair series of RAM. Those are the two main RAM companies I would recommend. Plus, I am a huge fan of Corsair's modular PSU's.

It looks like you have a good system there. Which Gigabyte motherboard? I'm a huge fan of their boards and except for an Asus Micro-ATX in my HTPC my WHS and gaming system run Gigabyte.

Looks like a good rig and should run todays games very well. G.Skill makes some good RAM certainly not a bad choice. The Corsair Dominator kit is a good RAM kit but a little overpriced imo. What case are you using?
