    Lo folks,possibly looking into building a new gaming pc for myself.First timer at this sort of stuff so any help would be greatly appreciated.

    Looking to spend in and around 1000 euro, am flexible with that tho.

    Games - Mainly using it for Age of Conan which seems to require quite the beefy comp to enjoy it properly.

    New Nvidia cards are coming out on 17th June, they are supposed to be monsters.High end GTX 280 ( €500 ) should be twice as fast as 8800Ultra and cheaper ( €350 ) GTX 260 should be 30% slower...

    I would get which ever one suits your needs and match it with a similar system to this..

    Should give insane performance for money...
