Hey, Just watched a video on youtube and he recommended this. He says it can play bf3 on "max" settings. Is that true?

And is this computer worth the money, beacuse Im thinking of buying part by part from the website. So I can finally get a good gaming computer.

iMinecrafterAll these people complaining about Windows 8 are extremely close minded and ignorant. Windows 8 has increased performance of systems, by no means very much, but it has still improved. I have upgraded to Windows 8 just a few weeks ago and it's the best decision. I don't have a third party start menu either. Windows Key + Q is the quick way to open the program search.
Set your desktop icon on the Metro menu to the first slot and press enter when you login, and bam you're on your desktop.

Windows 8 looks cleaner, runs just as well, if not better than Windows 7, and is going to be supported longer than Windows 7. Please tell me why you would purchase Windows 7 over it.

well alright, but It's still not my build. I found it from a youtuber. And it seems good.
I will still get windows 7..


What reasons are making you choose Windows 7 over Windows 8? Just because the YouTuber uses it? Why not buy Windows 8 which is just as cheap, and performs better? It has DirectX 11.1 and soon to have 11.2 which are both exclusive to Windows 8.
This could improve either performance, graphics, or both.


Actually there is partial support on windows 7 for DirectX 11.1 so it is not exclusive to windows 8 and you can get windows 7 for cheaper than windows 8 so really the only valid reason you have put is that it performs better which I cannot check as I have never used windows 8.

-I got most of my information from the windows website apart from the price of windows 7 which I got from ebuyer

thanks,I think so to.

Could you help a bro out? What do you think I should do with this?

Btw, I got 250 euro on my bank account and I got a xbox. I could sell my xbox and then afford the computer. What do you think I should do? Also It took along time to convince my parents to let me buy the xbox beacuse I had a wii, and I wanted a xbox. (lol) And now I want to switch to pc x) (My money, but you know parents). So Idk how they will accept it..

Fair enough, why should I be trying to make you switch? Guess nobody likes to take advice though.

I don't like Windows 8 either. I had a really hard time looking for a computer with WIndows 7 pre-installed, but it was worth it!

And oh yes, that PC should defenitvely handle Battlefield 3.

May I also recommend ARMA and Battlefield 2 with Project Reality mod? Look them up, they are great for PC gaming, in my opinion.

Alright, thanks for all help. I never knew that such a cheap computer could run bf3..
My friend bought a computer in the store for 800 euro and he can't play bf3 on max settings without lag. :S

Looks pretty good to me. With that graphics card, BF3 ought not give you too many problems. Just don't forget to buy a copy of Windows (You'll probably need 7, since most copies of 8 right now are upgrades, meaning you need an older version of Windows already installed).
