I will start off stating I am a complete noob at building computers, never done it before. However i have a few friends who have done it before and am looking for some other opinions. Star wars the old republic is an MMO and my comps always seem to be lagging in the FPS department. I am looking to build a computer that will run this game on a high setting for around $700 (if possible). I like having a nice monitor and already have a sound system, so if possible put that into any help given. Here are the supposed system requirements:
OS: Windows XP, Windows Vista, Windows 7
CPU: Intel Core2 Duo Processor 2.0 Ghz / AMD Athlon 64 X2 Dual Core 4000
RAM: At least 1.5 GB or better for XP / 2 GB or better for Windows Vista /7 (Note - PC's using built in graphic chipsets 2 GB RAM is recommended.)
Disk Drive: 8x DVD-ROM
GFX: ATI XT800 or better / NVIDIA 7800 or better / Intel 4100 or better.
GFX RAM: 256 MB minimum video RAM, shader 3.0 or better fully compatible graphics card.
Any help is greatly appreciated! Thanks for helping out a noob.
