    I just got a new computer my budget was around £700 It ended up at £1040 defenetly worth it though.

    Couple of things to keep in mind if you want to keep it as close to your budget as posable your better not geting an SLI motherboard, you wont really need a sound card unless your one of them sound freaks :p

    What do you have already that you can salvage from another computer? or do you need a brand new rig?

          Still needs a case to your liking, keyboard, and a mouse, if you aren't keeping them from your current computer. I was only able to fit 1 gb of memory in with that budget, but you will need 2gb to run BF2 as smooth as possible. Other games will run fine with 1gb
