Hi,

I just want to ask what is the best or most recommended set up for a desktop computer that I will use for gaming. Lets say I have a $700 budget to spend and I'm fond of playing racing games like Need for Speed, Call of Duty and other strategic games out there. Maybe a computer that looks like the picture below:

Computer Specs for gaming purposes

Hi!

• Computers ideal for gaming should have the best specifications.  I would recommend that you’d get these following specs:
• Motherboard – MB L1366 INTEL BLKDX58SO W/AV DDR3, CORE I7
• Processor – CPU L1366 45NM CORE I7 950 3.06GHZ, 8MB, DDR3
• Video Card –   VGA PALIT GF210 1GB 128BIT DVI, DDR3
• Memory – DDR-3 PC1333 4GB KINGSTON
• Hard Disk – HD 3.5" SEAGATE 1000GB SATA (1TB) 32MB
• I believe your budget is more than enough for these computer specs.  You can have a different brand of memory as long as it is 4 GB.  These computer specs are mostly used on internet shops who are into gaming.
