Thanks Kdawgmaster, I'm putting a whole new rig together for roughly $1500 I would like to spend less if I can but I also want to have a pc that plays everything on max settings if possible! (still have working monitor and 5.1 speakers so I don't need to buy any of that) I new to building pc's so I'm still learning what goes with what and whats better than what. If you wouldn't mind I could post parts I have looked at and you can tell me whats too much or whatever! Thanks again!

Hey everyone, I posted just the other day, because I am looking to build a PC for this game and many others coming or already out. I just got have a question about graphic cards. My cousin told me yesterday the nvidia cards are way better than ATi cards. Now he just bought this card http://canadacomputers.com/index.php?do=ShowProduct&cmd=pd&pid=021233&cid=999.243.390 and I am sure he may be a bit biased since he just got it, but I would really like to know are there cards equal to or greater than this for a better price? and which is the preferred card Ati or nvidia? Thanks guys, and sorry if I might be off this topic but so far the help i have gotten on this forum has been great help.

Awesome, thank you I'm gunna check these out now!

Thanks for the reply! I have a monitor and a good set of speakers but I have nothing salvageable from my old tower because it was completely destroyed from a flood in the basement. Luckily I still have a decent monitor and a good set of 5.1 speakers. I will check out newegg I really just want the new pc for this game and to be able to play my Battlefield games! Windows 7 looks promising I have never used vista my last pc was XP. Thanks for the info!

Hi everyone, I'm considering building a gaming PC in a couple months, and I need some help with what to buy to play ArmA II on max settings without making the computer work too hard. So far my budget would be around $1500. I don't know much about building a PC but I have a friend who can do it for me. So I just need to know how much the different parts are! I have been told building a gaming PC can be pricey but is it possible to pull this off? Thanks in advance for the help!
