Re: Is this good?

Looks like there is a 7300 - basically an entry-level 7 series GPU:

ibuypower/cyberpower, same company. I've never used a system from them, but they are a bit overpriced. Build one yourself, it's much more fun and you can overclock easily!

Spend the extra dollars and get 2 gig of RAM, that's what that PC really lacks. I don't know anything about the 7300's seems like its a new model and they are 7300GS's made for AGP.

I would ask for a single 7800GT instead of 2 7300's

Re: Is this good?

Get a single video card, and drop down to a non SLi motherboard unless the SLi option is very cheap for a "free" upgrade. Also consider 2GB of value ram, or order the ram seperate and order the system with no ram if possible.

For BF2 and all games, the priorities should be Video card first, then CPu, then Ram, then motherboard, then the rest. A 7300 is a budget card.. if you buy it expect budget performance.

Re: Is this good?

i would also suggest getting a single card because itll cost a little bit more but performe a lot better. i would suggest getting the 6800GS

7300gt...wtf never heard about this is this old news or new?

Re: Is this good?

Don't get the 7300's not worth it, get 1 7800GT. I have one and play all high @1280x1024. The 7300 is comparable to the ATI x1300 which is a pretty poor card.

Re: Is this good?

Maybe take out the extra( like speakers, mouse, keyboard, etc.) and use the extra money to buy some better parts. like a(n)

- Amd 3700
- Asus Mobo
- eVGA(its cheeper + good clock speeds) Nvidia 7800 gt
- Good 500 watt psu

Also building it yourself and looking for "deals" can save you alot of money

With an FX-55 @ 800x600 is barely playable on performance settings. Be warned!

Re: Is this good?

NOOOOOOOO!
Hope you didn't buy it yet... i'll fix up a prebuilt (sigh...you ought to look into building it yourself as you can get a better computer for the same price) for you.
Why would you get water cooling on a system like that?
BTW, what are you using this for? Because I don't think there is a reason to spend extra money on XP Media edition.
And I'm assuming you already have a monitor? What screen size is it?

Re: Is this good?

As a couple of others have already said, DO NOT get the 7300. That card is/will be a severe piece of crap. If you have ordered it already, please don't come back here crying that the game plays like crap on all low settings.

Hell a 5200 Ultra is a fater card than that thing, and who wants a 5200 Ultra?

Re: Is this good?

you know what... actually just ditch the water cooling and get a 7800gt instead of the 2x 7300.
I'll fix up a nice computer from newegg.com and prove just just how much better a homemade computer can be :)
