    Hey all.

    I'm looking to build a gaming PC for a friend of mine.

    He wants to be able to play the most demanding games available (e.g. Crysys) comfortably, and probably play online too.

    I'm trying to get in under the €900 mark (or there abouts). No peripherals/monitor needed. Attached is a rough config I put together on ebuyer.

    I've had bad experience with Harwareversand, so would prefer to avoid them

    Thanks all.

    You're not going to keep it under €900 with Blu-Ray and a bling sound card (do you really need either of those?)

    HD4890 is usually much better value than the GTX275

    If you need to economize drop back to a X4-940BE and a (ggod) AM2 mobo with DDR2.

    Had a build but I messed it up :o I'll repost later.
