    dunno but probably i5, 5870 and 4gb ddr3. not certain tho, may have to scale back to a 5830 or less instead if u wanna go intel, personally I'd go AMD (as i have), to save money for gfx / ram.

    At the end of the day the i5 is faster but for gaming there is no call for the speed and the gfx is much more important.

    Will do a build now =]

    EDIT:

    Here



    Also might be worth considering u cud get a phenom 555 dual core and use the extra money to buy a dual pci-e 16x board with a bios that can unlock the other 2 cores, so you end up with a quad anyway.

    Not really, if you're building a PC nowadays, 4GB is the minimum you want.

    4GB is entry and mid level these days.

    Tho 4gb will easily get you by for the near future, you could always buy 4gb more like #70 in the future and just add it into that build anyway.

    Re: Let's Make A Rig!

    Mm, I mean, I can play today's games today with 60+ fps and no sort of memory problems with 4GB, in a couple of years it'll be worth increasing to 6 or 9GB, but meh.

    When most people say minimum they mean 25fps.

    RAM has nothing to do with fps.

    If there's no memory for the program, it will stutter.

    Stuttering is not FPS.
