Hello guys i want to buy a new pc and i ask you what games will i be able to play with :
Windows 7 64-Bit
Chipset Intel H87 Express Chipset
CPU Intel Core i5-4570 (3.20GHz - Turbo Boost 3,60GHz, 6MB Cache, 4th Gen Haswell)
RAM 4096MB (1x4096MB) DDR3 1600MHz, up to 32GB maximum memory (4x DIMM slots)
VGA AMD Radeon HD 8490 1GB dedicated
HDD 1TB SATA (7200rpm)
Please answer quick.;)
 
The CPU is great. The graphics is horrible.

This computer is simply not meant for gaming.

1) For graphics I recommend the GTX750Ti or better:

2) For CPU I recommend one of the following:
- X4-760K
- FX-6300
- i5-4440

The above are at completely different price points but I don't know your budget. The X4-760K is roughly $100 cheaper than the i5 listed which allows for a lot better graphics. It's about the BALANCE of parts.

You'd likely be far better off BUILDING a PC based on recommendations. It's not too hard and it's rewarding. Pre-built computers have several issues as well such as having to return the entire thing for any issue, possible lower quality parts (motherboard especially), and the inability to upgrade under Warranty.

Other:
I also recommend Windows 8 64-bit if possible (add Start8 to bypass the new start screen).

(I also don't recommend asking people to "Please answer quick" as I doubt that helps.)
