I need a new PC! Questions inside.

Hello everyone , I have had the same computer for quite some time now and beleive its time for a new one. I don't have alot of money so I had a question about a certain setup. The crytek computer looks really nice to me since its cheap( my budget is around $900 - $1,200) and able to run games , but everywhere I go to read about how well it plays people only post their computer specs instead of any good information. I'm not very online savvy with parts in general but I try to understand. So my question is :

Is the crytek computer really a good deal?

Can it play other games such as Bioshock , Mass Effect , MMO's (FFXI respectivly) , and the upcoming games Aion and Diablo3 on a good high setting very well?

Does anyone know a better deal than the crytek one?

I already have a keyboard , mouse , monitor , and other such things I only need the computer itself.

Thanks for the time and I hope to hear from you soon.

-edit- here are the crytek specs

CPU - Intel Core2Duo E6750
GPU - GeForce 8800GT 512MB
Motherboard - NVIDIA nForce 650i Socket 775
PSU - 600W ATX12V
RAM - 2GB (2 x 1GB) 240-Pin DDR2 800 (PC2 6400) Dual Channel Kit
HDD - SATA 250GB 7200RPM
DVD - 20x DVD±R Burner
Case - ATX Midi Tower Computer Case
OS - Microsoft Windows XP Home with SP2

if you reserch a bit it would be alot cheaper to buy in peices then build it yourself :) try www.newegg.com

I'm assuming, because it has Crytek in the name, it can run Crysis. After all, Crytek is the developers of Crysis. xD

...But seriously, that looks like a good PC. However, if you actually take the time, you can build your own PC for about half that price.

Building a PC isn't that hard, either. Just look up a good guide on the internet.

Yes its supposed to be able to run Crysis. The thing is though is that I do beleive these peices have already been presummed from new egg and tiger direct and come out at $875. Its actually also a build your own computer parts as they are seperate prices and not a package.

Can you show me a good guide? I can't find any good ones and most go over my head.

So that's not actually a PC but a bunch of components added together to show what a 900$ can buy (i.e Crytek advertising showing that you don't need a 5000$ monster PC to run Crysis). Mind you that those specyfication came out in January and a many things have chenged since then. So, well, you're not afraid of building your own custom PC and that's good. Let's see what a thousand of dollars can get you (those Crytek cuild was nice by the way but it's aged and need some updates):

E8400 - one of the best CPUs on market, best choice for sub-100$ build, should last long, especially after overclocking. 190$

Gigabyte GA-EP35-DS3L - just a decent motherboard which does its job. 90$

Patriot 4GB 800 MHZ 84$

Western Digital SE16 640GB - fast, quiet, spacious. What else to expect? 95$

Corsair 550W - solid and sufficient. 90$

Some DVD Burner - 25$

Cooler Master Elite 340 - a solid case, but you may choose anything that fits your taste and it's not any kind of crap. 40$

So it's 615$ (I'm assuming that you already have an OS (XP will be sufficient), otherwise you'd have to spend another 80$ on Windows).This leaves us with 485$ for a video card which is quite plenty. Radeon HD4870is agood choice, but they're currently out of stock. If you must buy now, go for a Radeon 4850 for 175$ (here's a promocode that gives you a 20$ rebate)

Thanks a bunch! Those look really nice and have alot of good ratings. I really appreciate it :)

Would you say that setup could handle the games I mentioned fairly easily?
