Are these specs good enough for the latest games (2013 and further)

cyclops14 · Apr 17, 2013

Hi guys,

I want to know if this computer set-up is good enough for the latest games to run on. If it isn't good enough or something isn't right I would like to know so that I can make some changes.

Thanks in advance.

Graphics card= ASUS EAH6670/DIS/1GD5
OS= Windows 7 Home Premium 64-bit
CPU= Intel Core I3-3220
Cooling= MS-TECH MS-N750-VAL-CM
Case= Aerocool XPredator Black Edition
Harddisk= ADATA AS510S3-120GM-C (SATA)
Motherboard= MSI Z77A-G43 (Socket 1155)
Memory= Kingston HyperX 8 GB DDR3-1333 Kit

Honestly that would only allow you to play older, less graphically demanding games at medium to high settings as well as newer games at lower detail/resolution settings.I'd suggest you get a better video card and a H77 motherboard.

Absolutely NOT ....

6670 is terrible and SSD is space challenged

What is your budget ?

Uh no. The i3 while a decent CPU isnt game oriented. Also, the 6670 is an entry level GDDR5 card. And you are getting a z77 mobo with a CPU that cant overclock and make use of the prime reason for buying a z77 mobo. Up the CPU to a i5 3570k and the vid card to at least a 7870 (Myst edition if you can, a 7950 in hiding) then itll be a decent gamer for a few years.

cyclops14 · Apr 17, 2013

But it seems I have to put it together myself is that right??
It is not a problem btw just wondering.

yasserBasha · Apr 17, 2013

If you don't want to ... you could give the parts to a pc store to assemble it for you

cyclops14 · Apr 17, 2013
