Built my cousin a PC using very cheaply sourced parts.
Q6600
P35 mobo
8Gb DDR2
GTX280
Corsair CX500 PSU
DVDRW
Couple of 640Gb HDDs
19" widescreen 1440x900 monitor
He dosent really play a lot of games but he has all the COD games on his steam account along with a few others which he should be ok with as he was previously using dads 8800GTS 320 with a G530 cpu.
Hes asked for BF3 and BF4 and the new COD Ghosts.
I think BF3 and Ghosts will be ok but will he have a cat in hells chance of BF4 on a GTX280 with only 1Gb VRAM, even if its on low settings?
EDIT, answered my own question, apparently the GTX280 lacks DX10.1 which it needs. Ah well BF3 it will have to be then
