Gaming Wanna buy a new computer

[Langin]

This one guys: http://www1.euro.dell.com/uk/en/home/Deskt...s&cs=ukdhs1

The Inspiron(or whatever.)23(of course the expensive version) But is it YAY or Nay?

Best configuration will have a Core i5 and a HD5470. Mid-ranged CPU and low end discreet graphics.

It's not good (I wouldn't push game settings to max), but it's not bad either (games will still run on it and more than low settings). It really depends on what you want out of your computer. Some people love having all-in-one computers with a big touchscreen to make interaction much better, but some people see it as a gimmick. Then again, that's what made Macs popular years ago.

Hmm okay, I have planned to play Final Fantasy XIV on it(no others but still.)

And does a n64 emulator play well on it?

 

[jarejare3]

Definitely no to this, all in one are crap that overheat fast+ the graphics nor the computer core are not worth it. This is an office com.
But the n64 will work.

Its not CRAP thats for sure but being too expensive that can be talked about its top of the line. Now you want a laptop or a desktop? Anyways i have only made people buy dells around me for the past years an no one had a problem whatsoever dell are very generic computers now(not what it used to be).
The only thing I will add is you get what you pay for so if I were you id go into the XPS serie for gaming.

If you want a gaming desktop build it yourself:
CPU: AMD Phenom II X4 925, 4x 2.80GHz, boxed
Mainboard: Gigabyte GA-870A-UD3, 870
RAM: G.Skill ECO DIMM Kit 4GB PC3-12800U CL7-8-7-24 (DDR3-1600)
GFX card: PowerColor Radeon HD 5770 PCS+
PSU: be quiet Pure Power 430W
HDD: Western Digital Caviar Black 640GB
Drive: Sony Optiarc AD-7260S
Case: Xigmatek Asgard
CPU fan: Scythe Mugen 2 Rev. B


It's about 640€ and for about 50€ many online shops will put it together for you

this might be something, and it's below your budget

i will recomend you this one but replace the graphic card to a 2GB one.

Why a 2 gb gfx card?
He won't need it unless he uses eyefinity or 2560*1600.
but you could replace it with a nvidia gtx 460, because the standart one is really bad

Whats the difference between 32 bit and 64 bit?

Whats the difference between 32 bit and 64 bit?

The bit number is another way the processor works.
a 64 bit os needs a bit more power and ram but has the ability to have over 3.9gb of ram and has more cpu power in 64 bit programs.
If you buy this pc, 64 bit would be a better choice, it has just more power

Yeah that happens if you sell your 360 and tried to save up your money.

Let's hope it works now...
Wishlist for the computer. Also, please tell me if I forgot something.
Also, doesn't have a monitor.

I'd throw in a CPU cooler as well (Scythe Mugen 2 rev.B), and I'd personally switch to Corsair RAM. I've heard bad things about Kingston RAM lately... other than that, I would have recommended a very similar build
