I have always had laptops before and after playing R6 Vegas on a mates PC, decided to spend the money that I'd saved for a Wii to build a PC.

I had enough to buy the following, which totaled £215.

Generic black case with 450W PSU
17" Dell CRT monitor (Well used but only a tenner)
2 gig DDR2 667 (1 stick)
AMD X2 4200 Dual core
Gigabyte-M61SME-S2 motherboard
Powercolor 3850 PRO 256 meg graphics card
Pioneer 115D DVDRW
Seagate Baracuda 7200 200gig IDE drive (given to me for free by a mate).


Will this spec run R6 Vegas, UT3 and Crysis?

Opinions really welcomed, I have not yet built the rig it is my project for this afternoon!

Thanks.
 
Crysis doesn't run well for anyone at the moment. R6 Vegas is a strange one, it doesn't look that good but runs slow for what it is. I was playing it last week on my 8800gt and it runs "quite good" but thats at 1680x1050 so you should be able to run it just as good at a lower resolution. There are plenty of good games that would run well on that system though.
