im new to the website, i really dont know much about computers but will it be possible to build a pc that will run crysis, far cry?
hopefully i will get to do upgrades over time.
my budget is at 750 but also including windows 7 at the price .
will this build work?

thanks.
Looks good, but there are better deals on the 2GB 7850 just on newegg alone.
Anyone of these would be better imo
Though, I believe a 7870 might be better if it's within budget. If it does go over budget, I'd consider the NZXT Tempest to save a few bucks

this will run Crysis on low to medium settings. you won't be able to run it on max settings without spending around $1,000. I didn't include and optical drive (CD/DVD/Blu-Ray) becouse most people don't use then any more. if you need one you can get one for around $15 on newegg. hope this helps :)
Pretty sure that can run Crysis a lot higher than low or medium settings, Walt.

Fx 4300 would be your best bet for this setup/price range

the FX-6300 would be better. i already gave you a list of parts using the FX-6300 that meets your price range. why would you want to downgrade? those extra 2 cores will make a big difrence

i was talking about your build my bad. thanks
If you're going to OC with the FX-4300 and 7870, I'd stick with the 600w. besides, it's very difficult to get quality PSU for $40.
