    Ok so i bought one of these dell vostro desktops (dirt cheap prices from dell)

    http://boards.ie/vbulletin/showthread.php?t=2055312799
    great price for what you get tbh, want to use it as a gaming pc for my little brother since he is ADDICTED to bf2 lol
    I want to play with it all maxed out settings with full res transparency AA everything.

    Am running an amd3200+/2gb/7900gtx setup atm and get 99fps on all high in bf2.

    Now from what i get, I need to get atleast 1 more GB of ram and a graphics card like another 7900gtx or possibly an 8800gt(s) (im running one on a 400w xpower psu without any issues so the dell wont be an issue)

    now anyone know the cheapest place to get ram and a graphics card that is suitable? I dont mind if its used even.

    Used - You should take a look at adverts and do a search there. You should be able to pick them up cheap enough, especially with the new cards coming out there could be a few people upgrading.
