hi all,

I've already asked about a different computer, and I'm not gonna buy that one.

I wanted to reply in that forum, but through some reason i coulnd't, so here a new one with a 'new' computer.

I've found an other one, cause I'm looking for one all the time, it's for games like WoW, sims2, TBanniversary, LOTRBG2

here's the list with info i know now

intel P4 2,8 GHz processor
512 MB intern geheugen
120 GB harde schijf

it's for the half in dutch, but u can understand it ;)

I know the 512 is still not much, but I can buy it for E300 with 17 inch flatscreen,

and i can upgrade the 512 right? still don't know the videocard, going to call him tonight if it's worth it.

grtz!

I would seriously look at just going with consoles (like the Nintendo Wii or Xbox360) if you only have that much money and wish to game. That, or get a job and save up some more cash.

Low budget and good gaming don't go together in this industry, unfortuantely.

To be honest, that computer blows.

You could try and build your own PC with parts like this:
- Intel Celeron-L 440 (don't get the 300 series)
- Some cheap 945P/P965 motherboard that can overclock well and is stable
- 1GB of DDR-667
- 7600GT (go GS if you're really on a budget)
- 160GB SATA HDD
- DVD-RW
- Cheap mid tower ATX case
- At least a 430w PSU.

Man, that just wont cut it I think, I live in a duplex turning into dust slowly and yet can still afford a nice midrange PC every 4-5 years.

Why not just save up a little money or look into financing a PC? You could get a monster PC for 50 or less bucks a month. You dont always have to whip out 1000 greens. :)
