Need A New Rig for Warhammer Online

Message Topic Search Topic Options Post Reply Create New Topic Printable Version

   My computer has come to a point where it can't run Warhammer Online or Team Fortress 2 smoothly. I  am still using a P4 and PC3200 ram,so I am desperate to get a new rig.

I am currently using a 25.5 Samsung LCD monitor, so I want a machine that can allow me to play any game smoothly with it. I've been eying on that $1999 Hot.Seller.GTO deal,but I am wondering if there is another alternative cost less. My budget is around $2,000, but I would love to pay less if I can.

Any advice would be great.

	Don't forget to OC the cpu if you want that to be comparable to the other rig. I'm not sure the 750 mobo overclocks as well as the the 780 mobo, but it could be close. Could also try adding liquid cooling to the cpu for better OC.
