Build for Bc2 - Hardware & Software

So I've been playing some Modern Warfare 2 and it's complete shit, so I decided the next fps I want to play is Bad Company 2. The specs for that game is insane, and my crappy computer won't be able to run it. So I've decided I want a custom built computer. I don't know much about computers so I would like you guys to help. I live in Australia, have a budget of around $1700 but try to keep it around the $1500 range.

LOL Bad Company 2 =/= Computer over $1500 Australian Dollars (about $1400 I think in USD) Heck, maybe for $1000 AustralianDollars/~900? USD you can get one that maxes it out. I'm a newbie here, so hopefully my post will bump (which I just learned what it meant) your thread up and the pros can look at this problem Edit: Let me try to build one for you (don't flame me fellow FPers, just want to see if I have learned anything about computers in the past month. Note: I kind of cheated. ~1,074.92 AUD [IMG]http://img130.imageshack.us/img130/9282/picture4hy.png[/IMG] It says you don't know much about computers... are you building the system? DAMN! DOES NEWEGG SHIP INTERNATIONALLY??? caps

I just got one and it's pretty amazing.

[QUOTE=FalcoLombardi;19319730] DAMN! DOES NEWEGG SHIP INTERNATIONALLY??? caps[/QUOTE] No, unfortunately. Also you would be surprised at how much we pay for hardware in Australia, and in my personal opinion it's far too much.

[QUOTE=broo20;19320242]australian.[/QUOTE] Damn.

Can someone please make me a build with the msy link. Also I'm getting a friend to get parts together and build. I'm just paying for it. Oh and I would like this build to run Crysis too. That game has been in my closet catching dust for a while now. Bought it on a sale for 10 bucks :D

Lets see if we can get a MSY build before New Years here in Aus.

Wait, OP are you building the system? It says you do not know much about computers. --SNIP--- LOL sorry

Mm

[QUOTE=adzicents;19326721][url]http://www.centrecom.com.au/[/url][/QUOTE] It seems Centrecom is in Victoria :/. I would much rather pick up my parts than having it delivered to me.

Buying at a store costs way more.

I love australia, but the prices for comp parts are pretty bad...

[QUOTE=P3N15M4N;19338275]Buying at a store costs way more.[/QUOTE] Sure, but I just checked the prices for MSY, and it's amazing. Now I just need help choosing the right parts.

Centrecom are cheaper than MSY and ship nationally.

[QUOTE=adzicents;19348145]Centrecom are cheaper than MSY and ship nationally.[/QUOTE] Actually i just checked a few parts from MSY and compared it to Centrecom. MSY is cheaper by around 20 bucks for most parts and yes I checked like 5 parts. Still Centrecom has more parts, but I want a build from MSY because it's cheap and I can walk to the place to pick up my parts.
