About this RIG!

Morning all!

Im getting a gaming PC for my b day in march and i dont have the confidence to attempt at building my own so I was suggested by a friend to this website and to this particular build.

http://www.overclockers.co.uk/showproduct.php?prodid=FS-237-OK&tool=5

As you can see there is a range of options for the graphics card, SSD and the memory choice.

I was wondering what would be the best options for me to pick to run crysis 2 on max settings if thats even possible with this RIG, if not let me know! the only problems I could potentially see would be the i3 processor but it is overclocked to 4.20GHz so I would realistically need a boffins opinion.

Thanks


Mark

lol dude. DONT pay 1000 Pounds for an i3.

Jesus. Get the i5 2500k for 170 Pounds. This is a GREAT deal.

And either of these two motherboards. ~150 pounds

These two components will DESTROY any i3. Crysis DEMANDS cpu power. Don't waste your money. GET THIS.

IT IS TOO ******' EASY TO PUT TOGETHER YOUR PC.

STEP 1:
Screw the PSU into the Case. PLEASE DON'T TELL ME YOU DON'T KNOW HOW TO ******* USE A SCREWDRIVER, BECAUSE YOU DO.

STEP 2: Screw in the 9 special screws where your mobo will go into your case. SEE STEP 1 ****, YOU DON'T EVEN NEED A SCREW DRIVER FOR THIS STEP.

STEP 3:
Set your motherboard down on its antistatic bag. Drop in the CPU. YES, TO INSTALL THE CPU, YOU LITERALLY JUST ******* PUT THE SQUARE SHAPED CHIP INTO THE SQUARE SHAPED HOLE. WOW. WHAT A ******* MIRACLE.

STEP 4:
Install the heatsink. HOW? YOU JUST SCREW IT ONTO THE ******* MOTHERBOARD. WHAT A SHOCKER.

STEP 5: Now you're ready to put the motherboard into the computer case. GUESS HOW YOU'RE GOING TO DO THAT. YEAH THAT'S ******' RIGHT. YOU'RE GOING TO USE A SCREW DRIVER O LORD HAVE MERCY.

From this point on, all you have to do is install the various wires into the right places. All the instructions will be in your motherboard's manual. Just take your god damned time; you will be fine.

Btw I recommend using a magnetic screw driver. If you don't, then you will drop screws in all sorts of places and it will scare the **** out of you each time. WHAT'S THAT? YOU DON'T HAVE TOOLS? JESUS CHRIST BE A MAN.

How about learning something on your birthday? Time and work ethic are the greatest gifts of all. Both result in KNOWLEDGE.
