(adsbygoogle = window.adsbygoogle || []).push({}); Hey Guys,
I plan on buying a gaming PC for Christmas, but I am going to be ordering it in about two weeks.
My price range would be roughly 800euro give or take. ($1,112.32 or £695)

If possible I need it to be able to play games such as Battlefield at high settings, and record at the same time, I would also like lots of RAM as I do a lot of video rendering

Man, the HDD prices doubled since those water problems in Thailland A 2 TB Drive used to be around 50 euros here, now it's 90..
But what's your opinion on this one, I'm getting it next year;

I know it's low RPM but I will get an SSD for the speed;

Is a soundcard important? None of yous have put a soundcard in the build but that site that MrJC linked to has one on their builds.

Sort of but not really. I made a thread on building a PC just now You must login or register to view this content. It's not done yet, but when it is I will let you know As for your computer..

Also, if you don't want to build it yourself, the site offers building it for 20 euros

Doubt you'll be able to record BF3 at ultra with full AA but if you lower settings a tad you probably can, very solid build

Soundcard isnt too important, most CPUs come with integrated ones

My friend has a similar build (with the GTX 560), and it records BF3 on ultra with 8 or 16x AA (don't remember ) at 60FPS

Oh? Think an i5 2500k and 560Ti could?

Yep, easily.
