Is this good?

I'm confused. Is it 2.4 or 3.2? Also core2's are expensive for how dated they are. Athlon II's are a much better option. Refer to my 250 dollar build. Just throw on a different gpu.

You should include more details.

4gb of what? 100 mhz SDRAM?

That GPU is pretty outdated now.
Dual-Core is also slightly becoming redundant as far as high end gaming is concerned, what with some games now recommending Quad-Core.
What kind of memory is that, DDR2, DDR3? And what's it's clockspeed?

What kind of PSU are you gonna be running?

2.4 ghz....is it or not?

Is it an Intel? In that case, the 3.1ghz would be when it's using turbo boosting technology.

Lol I know what you mean about that quad core...when crys made me go look at the homefront requirements I nearly died.

I'm still rocking a Dx7 card and it's asking for a mid/high end build?

Jesus...

Ikr I bought Crysis Maximum Edition today, the guy at the store said "will your PC be able to run this." I was like "feck yeah it's rape that shizzle.

I didn't say that really, but I wanted to


You may aswell get a 240 nVidia decent performance for a decent price. Dx11 is also supported.

Lol. the downsides of having a rig built in 2002 and being to broke to build a new one? Lack of a PCi-e slot.

PCI FTW. Amirite? Let's not forget the used extra low profile case.

Even my current card is forced in. Doesn't fit very well.

MX400, lasted this long = amazing card.

You could buy an external PCI-E card. I've only ever used one once, on a laptop, made the thing a beast in terms of fps. Loading times could still be an issue with some games, but meh, I don't mind that.

Even if I did it would be bottlenecked by the rest of my build.

1 gig of 100 mhz ram.

2.0 p4 in 478 socket.

Recognizing it yet?

What kind of dinosaur is that?

That was the part that got me saying "holy crap!"


You should try and run Homefront on that

What the hell is that game about anyways?

IT SOUNDS like a north korean attack on us soil.

No clue though.

And yeah. It's pathetic.

2 sticks of patriot 256

and 1 kingston 512

Edit: Trust me. Loading screen wouldn't even open. I'd get a shader model 4.0 not supported error and it would crash. Happens on 50% of games. GG me? IDC as long as i've got my beautiful 1.6 http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=u1upgtk4mcI

i'll get the computer for free..im just asking if cs,css,cf and another games will work fine..

Yeah. It will work fine for older games.

ezbitz1990 wrote: »

how many fps ill get for cf?

I can't give an exact amount. But it will be reasonable.

ezbitz1990 wrote: »

100?and the other applications will work fine?

I would think a bit lower. I don't have a comparison chart for that processor to this game.

But it will run everything fine/good.

Since CF's more CPU heavy, than GPU heavy, if that processor stays at 3.1ghz Dual-Core, and what with your decent amount of RAM, you're looking at a good 70-80fps 8v8 at least.

It's decent, for a free PC. You'll be looking at playing games from the 2007/2008 ranges. Don't worry, there were some amazing games back then.
