thanx alot for that, it really helped.

i had a look around and deicided on this for under £50

Got good reviews and ive heard OCZ are pretty solid.

btw £50 im in the UK hehe :P

might also consider upgrading the GPU to something like a gtx260 or hd4870

planning on playing crysis:warhead & cod5 alot so might be sway'd towards Nvidia

for crysis :)

Ty,

what about this?

would that do? dont think i can afford much more :P

next 1 up is about £70-£80 :P

for playing games developed in favour of nvidia ie Crysis get the gtx260

but most other games the hd4870 outperforms the gtx260

also if your thinking of the hd4870 save for the 1GB version!

well worth the extra money.

im planning on getting a new gaming rig but im a bit short of cash.

Can i get some advice on this build plz? keep in mind i have a buget of around £400-£450!

any ideas of changes or is this pretty solid? ALSO what setting do you think i should attempt on crysis?
