Austin

I have around $800 to spend. I want to be able to play Crysis 3 and Far Cry 3 on maximum graphics. Please list the specs I need. I'm not lazy i just don't know anything about computers. I've been researching for days on what computer to get. Please help! Thanks!

Answer
The one you build yourself.....
NEVER buy a gaming computer.

Yahoo answers will only allow up to 10 links, so I have to leave out the not so important components. Just copy paste in the search field on Newegg to find them, I will give the full name but no link for those.

BEST BUDGET GAMING DESKTOP PC BUILD FOR THE MONEY (under $750.00USD for the tower only)
Monitor, keyboard and mouse can add from $175 to over $500, depending on size and model you want.
All prices are in $USD and in the USA, current as of December 2012 and they might be slightly different one way or the other by now.
Also, some shipping charges may apply to some of the items.
Add your state sales tax if you reside in NJ, CA or TN - that's where Newegg has warehouses.
Look for similar parts on Amazon, Tiger Direct, etc if you want to avoid paying Uncle Sam.

Answer
Here it is:
Best gaming PC for 2012:

Buy all parts on newegg.com, they even have instructional videos on how to build a PC:
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=lPIXAtNGGCw&feature=player_embedded
All prices are in $USD, from newegg.com, and current as of April 2012..

Processor: Intel Core i7-3960X, today's best processor ($1,050)
AFTER MARKET CPU WATER COOLING: Corsair H60 or H80 Hydro cooler ($70)
Motherboard: ASUS Rampage IV Formula LGA 2011 Intel X79 SATA 6Gb/s USB 3.0 ATX Intel Motherboard ($370)
http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16813131808
or ASRock Fatal1ty X79 Professional LGA 2011 Intel X79 SATA 6Gb/s USB 3.0 ATX Intel Motherboard ($290)
http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16813157288
Graphics card: EVGA 02G-P4-2682-KR GeForce GTX 680 2GB 256-bit GDDR5 PCI Express 3.0 x16 HDCP Ready SLI Support Video Card ($500), best graphics card
http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16814130769
It's never good having 2 cards in SLI as lots of problems and imperfections result from the 2 cards competing against each other to render parts of the same image. Just one good card is enough.
RAM: 16GB (four x 4GB) G.Skill Ripjaws X Series DDR3 1600 ($90)
HDD: 1TB Seagate Barracuda SATA III (6.0Gb/s), 7200rpm, 64MB Cache ($115)
http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16822148834
PSU: 750W Thermaltake 80 plus modular, $90 ($60 after rebate):
http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16817153136
PC Case: RED Sentey Arvina Extreme Division Tower Case 6x Fan LED/ 4 x USB / Multi Card Reader / 4 x Fan Control / E-SATA / 6 x Removable Aluminum Bays / Screwless ($100), also comes in Blue, Black and White ($100)
http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16811322008&Tpk=GS-6400R-ARVINA%20ATX

TOTAL: $2,345 and you got the best possible gaming PC
A good 27" full HD 1920x1080 LED backlit monitor is about $260 to $300.
