    Definatly no on the high, the ram and cpu are great, but the videocard still cant pull it off. I'd go for a 7600gt for all high, any card higher for a better resoultion.

        go for the x2 4400 with 1mb of L2 memory per core, then just overclock to 4800 speeds, its really the way to go.

          i'm fine with the 4600 it's the graphic card the problem but thanks for the advice and you know i never had chance with overcloking and stuff everytime something crashes example my old ati radeon 9600 pro so i'm not going to overclock anything

            what exactly are you going to be paying for the prebuilt system?

                for 999£ which i am only guessing is well over $1000, you could easily build yourself a much better system than what you have described. Though i dont know of any places that will ship to italy, so as far as finding parts, that would be your job. Go on newegg, and search for all of the parts that are in your prebuilt comp and see how much it would actually cost if you did it yourself.

                plus you get that whole warm and fuzzy feeling when you are done.

                    ah, the whole diplomat dad thing. Well in any event a 7300gs aint gonna cut it for bf2 on high. you could always replace it after you buy it with a different card. Although to be honest i think the gs means that it is AGP and i believe that that technology is going to be left in the dust within the next couple of years, limiting your upgradebility.

                    Oh, on a side note, go and see the Vatican for me. I have been to Amsterdam, London, Dar es Salaam, but with college finishing up for me pretty soon i am going to have to pretty much limit my trips to Tanzania. You know, the whole archaeology thing.

                      That would be able to play at medium, not any higher. Also this card is PCI-E.

                        I think it would have quite a bit of trouble even at medium.
