*ALSO* What grpahics card would be better to run it for less than $200?

Thank You!

well I am running at 1280x1024.

But I have a 720p HD tv so I dont know if that would make a difference?

okay man sweet! so I should use 1280x720?

I would play it on the TV, better performance, bigger, etc.

But yea, everyone ought to be using widescreen resolutions these days, unless you do a lot of CAD or Photo Editing.

You can get a nice 21" monitor for around $150 these days, but back on topic, your build looks good, should do well for you

I would spend a few $ more on a HD4870 which will allow you to postpone a future upgrade for a bit longer since it is faster. Future games will be more demanding so while the extra horsepower might not benefit you now, in the future it will.
Also, should you decide to upgrade your monitor in the future, the HD4870 will be better suited for higher resolutions.

That setup will run Crysis on High at that res no problem. If your TV is 1280x720 then be sure to use that resolution. If you try and use a higher one it won't look as good as using the TVs native resolution. Sometimes I hook up my computer to the 720p Plasma and it's awesome to play Wolverine on that .

megaman I will run it on that res. so im glad it will run it and look great!

And xaira why would I do that?

The board choice wont have much affect on the graphics performance, the southbridge wont have any effect at all, the PCI-E card is connected to the north bridge.
