I'm leaning towards the second one...

Is the third one an SLI setup?

Are you able to build yourself?

Yes its SLI.

yes i am able to build a PC, not a pro though Razz

I did think off that and the first one, I wasent sure the sli would give me much more power and it's a bit more expensive..


Sorry for bad English..

Third one...
You may be able to get two 750GB drives for nearly the single price of the 1TB drive.

System looks great for the most part. My one objection would be the IDE optical drive (try to get SATA) and the 750i chipset of your motherboard. If you want SLI, try to get a better motherboard. Though, if you won't be overclocking, the 750i should do fine.

I saw this shortly after he posted it, and was going to recommend the third one. In US Dollars, it is about $1,250. For a dual core, it seemed pricey, and I stayed quiet.

But.... the good thing is, it is compatible with DDR3 Memory, and comes with the 2 graphics cards in SLI.

I'd like to see a better MB as T-Fish said, but it will do fine as is.

Nope, it isn't. The CPU is, but not the MB http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16819115037

As far as the dual core thing goes, they should do well for games that aren't so heavily dependent on the processor. If he wanted to overclock, it would do nicely.

But if you could give a budget (provided I could probably find everything on the site with Google Translate ( Laughing )) I could probably get you a list of some decent components.

This might be an option to the Asus MB.

Total comes out to 9895.00

I'm not sure if you wanted an English operating system or not. If you wish to change it, make sure you're getting the full or OEM version, and that it is 64-bit (because of 4GB of RAM)

This is an Intel/nVidia based system.
If you wish to go with an AMD system (with either graphics chipset manufacturer of your choice), I can get you links to a different motherboard and processor. The prices for their new Phenom II processors, especially the quad cores, are rather attractive.
The memory used in this computer is DDR2. If you wish to go DDR3 you'll need a new motherboard. They are not backwards compatible with DDR2.

I've chosen a non-SLI configuration for you here. If you are using this for mainly FS, Crossfire or SLI configurations would not be significantly better because FS cannot take full advantage of it.
If you wish to go SLI or Crossfire, you would need a different motherboard.

Please double check and make sure I didn't miss anything.
Ask if you have questions as well. Sometimes the translation doesn't come out correctly and I may have missed something or chose the wrong thing.

Looks good Very Happy

Would there be difference betwen Intel prossesor and AMD for the same price or around that?

Clock for clock, Intel is faster than AMD.
AMD's prices are much lower, but power consumption on their chips is also higher.
