The 1gb 8600gt is a waste of money. It would run crysis at low/med settings to make it playable, but not really enjoyable.

Budgetwise there are MUCH better options. 9600gt, 8800GS, 3850 512mb version. Hell I think even a 3850 256mb would do better than the 8600gt as long as its at low resolutions.

Also that MB is SLI...combined with a 8600gt is absolutely pointless. SLIing two low end cards will not equal a high end card.

There are so many things that could be done to that build to optimize it for price/performance. If that is what you want let us know, but I would high recomend against the purchasing of that system.

He may have meant the 1024mb 8800gt rather than two 512mb 8600s. If so it should be ok for crysis, how good is the 1024mb one anyway?

cpu is fairly lowend now. Might want to look at cpu charts.
The memory is SLOWER then what the cpu uses (800mhz). There are intel cpus that do use 667mhz memory.
The motherboard is a little odd-ball, similar to my 520 nforce. M2N board will NOT support the newest amd cpus yet (like the 9850), my Asrock 520 just happens to. Careful how you choose and what board you do get. Less parts you have to exchange, the cheaper the next upgrade is.
As one said, the gpu is a bit slow. Again, look as various video card benchmark charts/reviews.
Take your time doing some research, nothing worse then getting a new computer that cannot play the game you want to play!

That processor is by no means low end, it's a kickass processor, the motherboard you should change to am2+ if you are gonna go amd, and the 8600gt's just suck get a 9600 gt, or 8800 gt or hell even a 9600 gso when they come out next week, and why no media card/floopy drive?hhhhhhMMMMMMM!

The only problem I see is the graphics card. If you plan to play Crysis, you will need something more powerful. Ram isn't everything. 8800 at least. Otherwise not bad.

I have a laptop with the 8600GT and it's heavily overclocked and it still barely runs crysis on Medium at 1024x600. I would invest in at least an 8800GT if you want a decent Crysis expereience.

Otherwise the system looks great!
