Hey just ordered some new parts for a new pc....

AMD Phenom II x2 550 3.1GHz

corsair XMS 4gb DDR2 800 MHz Ram

Gigabyte MA720-US3 AM3 Motherboard

Sapphire Radeon HD4850 512mb

Enermax 535 duel rail PSU

IMO its a good budget build.... But!

My question is....

How well would this build run with GTA IV and Crysis? High settings? (not max) decent resolution?

I know i will be able to run things like , farcry 2, assassins creed on max pretty easily but yeh im not sure on gta 4 and crysis because they are very demanding.

cheers!

Crysis, yeah high settings without AA @ 1900x1200

GTAIV, well, you actually need a quad core to play it so not so much.

Well you don't NEED a quad, some duel cores do perform well under it. but good news for crysis. thanks for the response hopefully i preform better than expected for gta ! :D

GTA4 is really optimized for a quad core.

I think you would have been better suited with a 720BE w/ddr3 on a AM3 platform. It only would have cost you about another $40 and your future upgradability would be much better.
