Help for making a Pc

[Guest]

Hi, i need help to build a computer. i never done this before and i dont know what do i need for making it. i want it pretty much for gaming. all i want to make it extra ordinary so i could keep it for a few years and still will be good. so i think the 2gb graphic card would be worth it in this case and i dont know what processor and ram should i do for it. i want it to be real fast like 8gb or 4gb i dont really know whats right but i want it real fast. i dont want to pay too much for it too. pls help me.

That build will play anything with maximum details on that monitor.

with good frame rates

4GB is enough for gaming and is pretty good outside gaming too.

You have to fill out a form and mail it in. Then wait anywhere from a few weeks to a few months.
