Budget build help.

[zyphen]

hello. again

on ebuyer i have found some things that i could buy. would it be a good idea to use these?

Intel Core i3 2120 3.3Ghz

Biostar H61MLC Socket 1155 mATX

Kingston 4gb (2x2gb) DDR3 1333MHZ

will this work together and will i be able to play most games at reasonable settings if i get a fairly decent graphics card.

i am in a very low budget so this is kinda the max for me.

i have a 500w psu and a 500gb hardrive.

should i buy it?

If you want better advice, list your current system specs to see what performance you have right now. I recommend those parts for a low cost upgrade but I also recommend you spend a little more for 2 x 4gb of ddr3 while prices are $35 on some kits. What brand is your power supply and what is your budget for the video card?

Yes it would be great for gaming with a good graphics card. It also would allow you to upgrade to Ivy Bridge.

well iv got £150 from christmas to spend this is how much that setup would cost. but my birthday is in 2 months so im sure my graphics card budget would be about £100

my current setup is a Amd Athlon x2 4800+ @ 2.5 ghz
2gb of ddr2 ram
MSI K9N6PGM-F
Radeon hd 2400 pro.

this is why i need to upgrade everything.

my psu is made by Win Power and is 550w
