I'd like to start out by saying I've never physically changed anything within a comp so I'm kind of scared about this but i hear its not hard and ill get a lot of support from the people on this site. As stated in the title i want to build a gaming comp that can run Lost Saga to its best potential ( sorry for the low budget let me know if this is impossible). I'd like to point my current computer Compaq Presario cq5700f PC AMD Anthlon II 170u processor premium 64 bit 2gb ddr3 system memory 500 GB HardDrive can run the game just fine. But what i want is a comp that can run this game on its highest quality and have great swap speed. Swap speed in this game is the most important thing to me i don't really care about the graphics to much but it would be nice if i could have those too. From what i can tell swap speed depends on a number of things like my connection i use to connect to the internet which is Comcast with Powerboost the fastest internet they provide. It also depends on the comp which is why i'm here and it depends on my distance from the server. i live in Georgia and the game server is in California with that stated i want to build a comp with those things in mind and get the best of what i can for what I'm spending. Also if anyone wouldn't mind checking into what i mean by swap speed because like i said this is the most important thing to me, I told you everything i know about it but i have a feeling there is more to it then i know.
Anyway sorry for the long intro like i said I'm new to building a comp and i want as much help as possible because as of right now it seems impossible in my head, but even so i still want to try it. I'm looking to spend 400-500 dollars and i hear the best place for parts is Newegg please correct me if I'm wrong. I know a good amount about computers just never looked in to building one. So if anyone could help me with this I'd greatly appreciate it to be honest i don't even know what all parts i need I'm that newbie so if someone could direct me there that would help if i don't find it first after i finish typing this. If you need more information about the swap speed thing( the main reason I'm doing this) just ask and ill show you or tell you the best i can.
I'd like to thank everyone who helps me in advance because I'm going to need help and a lot of it and I'm not afraid to ask questions.
