You don't really need a quad core now. It is too expensive. I am just gonna get an AMD X2 4600+ or better, and I will be fine. I might get a quad-core after Crysis when it's cheaper, and you don't need a quad-core to run crysis.

It's not too hard. You can go to pc guide.com. They give good directions, I learnt alot from reading their site. And you can get a dell if you want, choose your parts, or go to Micro One computers on ebay. I hear they are very good, you can choose your parts, case, etc. They also seem to have good warranties (for a store on ebay), and if you know enough about PC's you can fix your own problems, and easily upgrade them.

I think he meant to pay for the parts too :P

If I'm wrong... which happens all too often nowadays.
If you do build your own computer, take your time, it's all relativly simple so long as you have all the information just be careful you don't want to mess up and find you need to replace a part that cost you hundreds of dollars.
Also, you want to look for the best time to build one, you don't want to find out a week later your processor just got $50 cheaper if you could've waited a week.

Bioshock, SupCom, Spore, Assassin's Creed, Alan Wake and World In Conflict make me want to build a new one.

The crysis recommended specs are not too bad. I can build a PC that can play Crysis for less than 1000 bucks.....but I am waiting for the right time to start building mine. Since I want to buy the 8800GTX, for a bit cheaper......but by then, ATI probably would have released their R600 series....and I will be torn :(

You can build a computer capable of playing crysis on recommended specs for not that much. But it is still good to wait since the rate at which PC components falter in price.

Yeah Crysis looks phenomenial in some of the new videos!!! My CPU and GPU sure couldn't run it though. One of these days I'm going to save enough money for a top of the line rig b/c I just used to get so much more satifaction in seeing a game run execellent on my rig rather than on my 360 where the game runs the same for everyone, and if there's framerate issues on a PC game, new hardware will fix them, but on a console your stuck.

Nag dabbit. A new PC is still like a bajillion moneys. When will various companies release their new ridiculously overpriced junk so I may buy their old lineup at a price fit for a mortal?

For me, its like I have to get the Best, because "decent", just doesn't cut it for me. I actually built one for $1500 on cyberpowerpc a while back and it was really good, but I bet the prices have dropped a lot by now.

Like a normal GPU would. It just takes 2 expansion slots....
Just like how a PC can run 2 GPU's on SLI.....it works somewhat the same way, except it's one GPU.....and people have already started putting two of those on SLI :|

But what about the little bar in between on the case? Also, I read you need a separate power supply for the graphics card? Where the hell do I store it inside the case?

my point is that a dx10 card isnt all that necessary for crysis, but will really increase the performance especially when running the game with anistrophic filtering or anti-aliasing or high resolution

Yeah, DX10 really isn't necessary right now and plus it's pretty expensive, but by the time Crysis comes out, I think they'll be lot more affordable.

That's where the motherboard goes, and you slide the GPU along that slots on the motherboard and notice the little opennings on the back of a gaming tower. Yeah, the DVI and TV-out jacks will show thru those slots. And no you don't need a seperate power supply, you need one to power both of them.

Just go to PCGuide.com. They have all the steps for building a rig on your own. And they can explain anything if you need further help.

Why would anyone want to spend like $5,000 dollars for one game. Just buy a PS3 and you can get tons of games for only $600.

I want to get into the pc world again.
But, i don't know till when to wait. And i'm not so sure at times about getting an expensive pc because we might see MMO's on consoles too... I need some kind of pc anyway...
People told me to wait till end of april?
I'm also wondering about directx10.. It sounds like Vista sucks for now, and might always suck. And i'm not sure how soon the average game will start using it. Crysis does look promising, Age of Cohan too. The MMO i'm interested though is Chronicles of Spellborn... Conflicts in my mind, i'm going crazy!

Why would anyone want to spend like $5,000 dollars for one game. Just buy a PS3 and you can get tons of games for only $600.kinq
Well, firstly you really don't need to spend $5000 to get a PC capable of running Crysis well. In fact, you need to spend like under $1000. And the PS3 hardly has tons of games. Resistance and Motorstorm only? No thanks. The PC library absolutely destroys the PS3s.

PWNED. PC's are not expensive as most think. You pay for more power.

$2500, since we're going by pre revolutionary japanese yen numbers.

What an ignorant statement.  5,000 dollar PC's are the ones with unneeded components, like a PhysX card, and TWO 24" monitors, and 6 gigs of RAM, and 2 8800 GTX's.  A PC that can MAX Crysis in Directx10 at 1600x1200 will cost you probably 1800 bucks, not 5000.

Sure, the PS3 is cheaper, but the PS3 is incredibly unappealing right now, even with HOME (in my opinion.)

You pay more, you get more.

A few things: I just built new computer. -Core 2 Duo -2 Gig RAM -Sound Card -8800 GTX -SLI ATX Mobo -Soon to be getting a 32 inch HD monitor :) -Don't worry about Quad Core, very very few programs utilize them now, and even the low end Core 2 Duo's outperform them -Don't get the R600. Nvidia is about to drop another GTX that already outperforms it (25% more shaders than the 8800 GTX currently out!) -A GTX with a good processor can run Crysis well on Max settings, or so has been said.
