Gaming pc Build help..

Is this gonna run SWTOR and D3? If not what should i upgrade in it? I have about $460.

Best you can do within that bidget is to get this gfx card instead of 6570. I'd also recommend this case. With 7750 you should run those games fine.

here is what i would change from the stock build as it was priced BEFORE the price hikes on hard drives and the plummet in ram:
better psu for 10 bucks more:

tadas i improved his formula by like ---- tons

if you have say 15 bucks more what you can instead do for a case is get the bottom end gaming case:

tada you can now max MW3, diablo 3 is more than likely since top down engines are ultra lightweight all the time (see torchlight, alien shooter).

finally as for swtor you can play it but i wouldnt play. they may not want to admit it but their user base isnt exactly "thriving" i mean they have lost about 15% of their user base 1 month in and from what im hear at anandtech.. their friends lists are getting less and less active with each day.

So your sure that i can play most games? And that all this is compatible? Would you recommend a new fan? So far this came out to $411.89. Which is very good for my budget.

Thanks a lot.aaCynthia321

Add another 100$ for OS and you've got yourself a pretty cheap gaming desktop. Van_SteubenZ

Ive been thinking of building my first gaming pc and this looks like a great build. I have a question though like how long would this computer last? more than two years? and would this run skyrim since that is what i kind of wanted for. Or battlefield 3 or any other high end game? And I have a budget of 450 probably no more than $500. I also have a microcenter near by if that matters. thanks!

such a system is already on the verge of being outdated. as soon as the next consoles hit shelves.. thats about when you will loose your ability to play many games well at high or medium.

skyrim you could play on medium and same goes for BF3 (if its any consolation the consoles play BOTH on low - a setting lower than is possible on a pc).

and that at resolutions of 1366 x 768 or lower (basically monitors south of 19" or most tv's of 32") you could also max mw3

Thanks for all the help. So just to be thourogh, does anyone have input on the current build (changes or different suggestions)? Because thats the stuff im gonna buy so far.
