So my 5th Xbawks has been infected by the red ring today again... So my cousin said that I could get into the PC gaming scene. He recommended me to get a custom built computer instead of a pre-built one, because it's cheaper. So fellas please help me out on the parts for my new PC. I would like to keep the cost between 1500-1000 AUSTRALIAN dollars. A little bit over is fine. I'm gonna be playing BF:BC2 and probably some Valve games. Thanks all :D
Jizz.
1500 Australian Dollars = 1300 United States Dollars
:argh:
Anyone know any Australian websites?
Australia? Isn't everything banned there?
Only pcworld nz sadly. Let me google quickly.

Wow, on Newegg they released new Athlon IIs.
Oh shit, a tri-core running at 3.0 Ghz!
I would get one of the new Athlon IIs if you don't want to spend all of that $1500 AUD for a rig meant for Source games.
Sorry if I'm late.
You are very late biatch.
Only kidding. Because if i wasn't i would be banned for trolling.
Anyways recommend for now.
Core 2 Duo
4gb of ram at 1066
and a nice 9800gtx+ or a 4830 for size
20inch monitor supporting 1600x900 or 1680x1050
550w crosair psu.
Hmm just to get an idea do you plan on getting another console? How much do you game? You can build a nice system for under 1500 aus on that site.
You could probably fit a 5870 into that budget unless you need a monitor or OS.
if you want, you could probably recycle the HDD from the XBOX as it is only a 2.5" SATA drive, you can get a bracket to mount it in a desktop PC
but to be honest i doubt it will be big enough in space.
