    Hello all. Long time lurker on this forum. Have finally decided to take the plunge and get a gaming rig. Was looking at this http://www.overclockers.co.uk/showproduct.php?prodid=FS-210-OK but have noticed that everyone seems to be using http://www4.hardwareversand.de/home.jsp?lid=2&lb Went on to their PC configure page but was frankly a bit overwhelmed by the amount of different parts particularly graphics cards which I've spent some time studying on http://www.notebookcheck.net/Comparison-of-Laptop-Graphics-Cards.130.0.html
    I was told the above site gave a good general idea of the capabilities of the various different cards. Would that be correct or is there a better one specifically for desktops?
    For my build my budget would be approximately €500. Have a monitor, keyboard and mouse but would need an OS. i wont be using the computer for anything but gaming, no browsing, email etc and i would be hoping to play games like The Witcher 2. Am i dreaming?
    Any help greatly appreciated:)
