A store in UK will build you ANY PC for 50 pounds...

There is a PC hardware store in my area that will build ANY hip of components (of course they should be compartible) install windows for £50...The only thing one has to do is to any UK hardware forum ask for components and cheap sites order get the parts to the store and 2 days later get the PC...

Its aint rocket sciense...

Most stores here will build you one for free if you buy the parts at their storeLonelynight

Thats another point....

Ive got a leaflet from a store that sells:

C2D6550 1333mhz FSB 4mb cache (futureproof as hell)

1333mhz667 Motherboard (futureproof as hell)

8800GT 512mb

2gb RAM 667

160gb HDD

650W PSU

Case/MK/DVDRW

All including assembly £466...Add Vista to that and youve got £500 PC...A 40gb PS3 costs £300 and Xbox360 £250...

PC games cost £25-£17, console games £45-£35...

Heh, and with that set-up, you probably still couldn't run Crysis at max. V_Isle

No current PC can, and I don't see a need to

Max res and AA not...but anything else yea...Tell me is there anything on consoles on par with Crysis on high settings? Medium?

I thought the optimization is great for lower end hardware my PC

P4 2.7ghz

768RAM

9600pro(256MB)

Runs it fine on medium low at 1024x768resolution, and Crytek already said that it was built to be future proof(though he did said somethings which also isn't true)

That's not even what we're talking about here. Are you insecure or something? Because I'm talking about how a supposed "super optimized" game has to be run on lower settings and doesn't come close to the pre-release screens we've seen over the past year.

It takes a bit of time if your novice to get all the parts together. Its not like I dont know how to build a pc, but I really dont feel like dealing with all the Bios and tweaking. So ya I dont build my pc, I get somone else to do it for me.

That's an idiotic way of thinking. You sit on a console game (say, Gears of War) locked in at 1280x720 on "low/medium" settings, meanwhile, with Crysis, on Medium settings at 1280x720, you've bested what any console game can do (visually). Moving up from there, any step up is an improvment. "Maxing out" a game designed to grow with your hardware is impossible - because "maxing out" usually implies doing things that *are not* efficient, like turning on a large amount of anti-aliasing, while running taxing lighting effects, while playing at ultra-high resolutions.

What you're doing is throwing a temper tantrum for your ego "if it can't sell all the sliders on MAX then I don't want it!". Then don't buy it - but Crysis is well optimized, I've been able to push the single player demo to produce visuals that top what many other PC titles can display, and I don't even particularly care for the game. Crysis' ultra-high end visuals are being built for GPUs that aren't out yet, it's not that there's a lack of optimization, it's that it's being built so there's always a higher setting to unlock, making it remain the graphics king for as long as possible.

Your complaint is purely one of ego.

the demo dosent suport dual and quad cores, the games looks better then any console game this gen even on medium/high, they made this game above current hardware capabilitys on purpose since pc's can always be upgraded, they dont need to hold development back like on consoles, so they can just develop games ahead of their time, if you want to play this game at very high on 1600x1200 wait a little before upgrading your pc.

I will be the father of your children if you tell me where one can find such stores. :o

read my post AGAIN SLOWLY...

that sounds reasonable.TurninTricks

Generally speaking if you're bying from a store near you I think it's better to let them assemble it for you even if you could do it yourself, if some component is not working they will replace it immediately and save you the hassle.

Its free if you buy the parts there but in UK its more expensive for practically anything compared to mainland europe...Luckily im from Greece and I just study here...

Sounds like a good deal but why not save £50, get very unsober and build it yourself?zeus_gb

Or better yet, just buy a Dell or HP or even an Apple.
