excuse my bad english please,

i'm looking for a computer for playing GTA IV, i am able to spend between 1000 and 1500 dollars on it, i want a pc that not only plays the game exelent but also is good in other things,

GTA IV isn't that resource consuming from what I know so you should be able to get a good computer for a $1000 - are you planning on getting it premade? or custom made by someone?

[altair]

premade i think, but do you think it's smarter to get it made?

premade i think, but do you think it's smarter to get it made?

yeah you're better off because that way you can make sure a majority of the parts are made for gaming - most pre-made computers try to give you general parts at the cheapest price possible - the only things they'll point out is the GPU and probably the amount of RAM you have.

hmm... how much more money will it cost?

i know a great gaming computer you will love on the wal*mart website. but i cant give you the link. until i have 10 post. i hate being a n00b. Well anyway its a iBuypower Gamer Hardcore 570 Desktop PC with AMD Phenom II 920 Quad-Core 2.8GHz Processor, 1TB Hard Drive

[altair]

thats intresting! i can't help but notice that you have 14 posts, so maybe you might give me the link now?

he needs to wait 24 hours as well but i believe he's talking about this:
Walmart.com: iBuypower Gamer Hardcore 570 Desktop PC with AMD Phenom II 920 Quad-Core 2.8GHz Processor, 1TB Hard Drive: Computers

it's not bad - costs $900 but it doesn't tell you what kind of ram it has or whether it comes with heat spreaders. and it has a pretty decent Graphics card but I'm not too knowledgeable on ATI cards so i can't comment too much on it.

and it comes with Vista Home which isn't the preferred gaming OS - most stick with XP and others are waiting for Windows 7 to come out.

You'll still probably be able to get a better computer for the same price if its custom made OR save money for similar specs - but this is a decent deal if you don't want to go through the trouble of getting it custom made - these are just some comments to help you decide.

yes, thats the exact one i have and it has 4GB of RAM, its a nice super computer, if you just wanna "grab n' go" instead of getting a custom
