SAM77

Hope this might help because I am looking at making a gaming rig as well. I am looking at a very small budget but here is a starting point for you. As I live in Australia these components will set me back approx $900AUD so depending on where you are I am sure you can squeeze a whole rig in there somehow Intel E8400 or E8500 for cpu DFI X48 or P45 motherboard 4GB or 2GB DDR2 RAM (waiting for an answer on how much is enough for Black Shark) Nvidia GTS 250, GTX 216 or ATI 4850, 4870 WD 150 GB velociraptor HDD I just looked up these components on NewEGG and they will set you back $710 US (4GB RAM) so you still have $300 for case PSU etc...

Hi Guys I am going to build a gaming system for Black Shark Need to know if the game benefits from 4GB RAM or is 2GB RAM more than enough. I am only runnning 1280 x 1024 4AA 16AF but intend on maxing all details running Windows 7 with the new system. Many thanks in advance
