Hi, i have a really tight budget of about £700-800 to get a PC and monitor mainly for gaming. However, all i really play is games like Counter-strike source, Team fortress 2, Call of duty 4 and Killing floor, so not very hard games to run.
I am hoping to buy this computer, upgrading the graphics card to an ATI Radeon 4850 512mb, http://www.overclockers.co.uk/showpr...d=1184&subcat= Would this PC build run these games smoothly with no problems? Also, if anyone would like to help me with a budget (but good) monitor to go with this build, regarding it is for gaming, could you look on www.overclockers.co.uk and let me know? Thanks alot. |

Also on topic, IF this computer would run those games fine for me, could you also answer which PC would be the better one.
AMD: http://www.overclockers.co.uk/showpr...d=1184&subcat= or INTEL: http://www.overclockers.co.uk/showpr...odid=FS-170-OK |

The former with a 4850 should be fine, although you may want to swap the PSU as prebuilts come with horrible ones.

Just get the former one and replace the PSU. For £100 difference it's not worth buying the other one, the performance is the same.
