PC Help?

[T1M]

Hey

 

So i'm looking around for a new PC, and I found this:

Yes I know its at Tesco :p

 

Does Cache matter when you're playing games? (It has 1.5MB L2 Cache)

 

I want to be able to play San Andreas on it smoothly, and run internet and MSN together smoothly.

 

Is that possible on that PC?

You can run San Andreas on that. If you want to check if you can run games go to: www.canyourunit.com

He needs to own the pc before he can run that ;)

[T1M]

Thanks

 

Does that mean I could run it smoothly with NO lag?

:crackup:

 

What about the cache? I thought most PCs came with like 4 mb? :confused: And what does L2 mean? :confused: :cheeky:

[SLRRR]

He needs to own the pc before he can run that ;)

 

 

yes i know that

 

but you can see what you need to run it

 

Btw: almost every pc can run San Andreas

That pc is very nice, but the graphiqs card i dont know you should get a Nvidia or Ati

 

i own a Dell inspiron 531 looks exactly the same (the case) the specs are different

[Guest RB26DETT]

that last one you linked has a integrated graphics and is not good for gaming.

[SLRRR]

And btw why do you want a quad quore if you want to play games like San Andreas and do stuff like: msn, inthernet.

 

You can buy a cheaper system with a better videocard if you want to do stuff like that (i think the integrated videocard is good enough for San Andreas)

That's right! You should definetely get a Graphics card from either ATI og nVidia if you intend to play on your PC. Integrated ones are not suitable for gaming, (depends on what games we are talking about though , lol cuz of course you can still play PinBall and Chess and stuff like that with onboard graphics :p)

[Guest RB26DETT]

if it's just GTA SA you'll be playing, a PC with a 8400GS GPU will be plenty enough for it.

If you want to buy a Dell, buy it straight off the Dell site xD

[iBilo]

Also, DON'T buy a Dell, my parent's PC is a Dell and we've had so many problems with it, my friend has a Dell and thats had a hell fo a lot of problems.

[Iced_Bullet]

We've had 4 Dells and no problems. Only when it comes to upgrading things apart from RAM and Graphics. As they put big oxes round things and or trap cables in so they only thing you can do is cut them out, when that renders the cable useless.

[SLRRR]

I have 1 Dell and the only thing i can say: Dell is great

 

I had a HP but that thing had a lot of reclame in it. And the support from dell is just great.

 

 

SLRRR

[T1M]

Well, I could always buy an external GFX card, right?

 

I'm sure the standard one is good enough for San Andreas/Vice City :D

[SLRRR]

Yes you could do that but it's probrably cheaper to buy a pc with that in it. But you can play games like that on it i think

[Iced_Bullet]

Tim, have you spoken to your parents about possibly building your own PC? With help ofc. Would give better performance for your money.

[T1M]

Hmm, I don't know much about building them :p

 

My cousin does- he built his, but he is at Uni, so that'd be awkward

 

:confused:

 

I dont know much about specs either, and what i'd have to buy other than casing, Processor (mother board) etc. :S

Trust me mate, building your PC will cost less (same specs) and probably will save even if you PAY someone to build it for you
