    Hello guys!I'm quite new on this forum,I'm from Romania(think u've never heard of it:p)and I want to build up a new rig.
    I have a 20" LCD monitor,the chassis,DVD-RW and approx. 700$.Here's what I thing of getting:
    Biostar TA790GX 128 CFX
    AMD Phenom II 710
    Zeppelin 2x2GB @800Mhz
    Sapphire HD4830
    Spire 550W
    250GB Hard-drive

    I usually play racing games(1680x1050) and I want to build a computer that will last at least 2 years.
    So please help me choose the right stuff.

    Hi & welcome to Major Geeks :wave

    Romania I know of it, Dracula, Lake Bled. Most popular sport is "Soccer", your capital is Bucharest. Any of that right? LOL

    Why not go for the 940 Phenom II?
    Graphics wise i'd go with the 4870 X2 for that resolution & the time you want it to last.

    You will need a stronger PSU with a 4870 X2 though :-D

    Yap,Bucharest is the capital-city.I warn you:don't go there.It s***s big time.
    Now,about my new PC.I have only 700$ so a 4870 x2+940BE won't fit.I think 2 yrs it's a little bit exagerated,but I want it lo last,let's say,a year.

    Any other opinions?

    LOL so is London :-D

    I'd say go for either the 4850 or the 4870 1GB, I have that card & I have no problem running all my racing games on max settings 1440x900.

    man it will last fore more than a year only thing is it will probly get old :p
    As there like the new intel i7 processors and like triple channel RAM and shi :p

    But yea defo worth getting a ati 4850 GDDR3 memory if u can afford and maybe a 650w PSU and more HDD :p
    U can get good deals on sites like newegg but they are US so look around in your local computer stores ;)

    I forgot to mention.I also have a WD640 AAKS.
    Look,a new wishlist
    Is it good?Please tell me something:If i'd choose a AMD 7750 X2+ATI HD4870 would perform better in games than X3 720+4850?
    Thank you.
