If i want to play the newest games on a pc, what do i need?
 

What videocard and stuff?

You cant afford.

stick to monopoly :1orglaugh

depends, your system agp or pci-e?

The newest one... duh :)

I hear the NVIDIA GeForce 7900 GTX is pretty kick ass :thumbsup

Would be for a new system.

That would also depend on what resolution you'd play at and if you make a point to play with all the eye candy and details set to max, and high antialiasing/anisotropy set to high values.

If you want an absolute killer system:
I would say a SLI mobo with any AMD FX cpu, dual 6600+ vid cards, and 2 gigs of ram should do you fine.

For a system just able to play new games decently:
2.0Ghz cpu, 6800 vid card, 1 gig ram

Your should have atleast a 2.0 processor, 512 MB RAM, and a 128mb graphics card.

Can you even get a 2.0GHz cpu these days?

Absolute bare minimum these days for current games I'd say a Pentium D 3.0GHz, 1GB ram, X1600XT or a 6600GT.

Xbox 360

have heard of quite alot of faults on the SLI boards

that doesnt necessarily matter, agp is still fine as long as you got a lot of memory and a decent processor.

best way to know my friend, go buy F.E.A.R. or Half Life 2 or one of the best new PC games graphically and see what the recommended specs are. Then price out what you can do.

Always wantes to know, do games on this console look/play better than the newest games on the best computers?

512 mb ram ?
