Hello,

I was wondering if the computer I am thinking of ordering (with the following specs), will be able to run games like skyrim (etc,etc) on decent settings.

Case - COOLERMASTER HAF 912 PLUS MID TOWER GAMING CASE
Processor (CPU) - AMD BULLDOZER SIX CORE FX-6100 (3.30GHz/6MB CACHE/AM3+)
Motherboard - ASUS® M5A97: AM3+ PLATFORM, DUAL DDR3, SATA 6.0GB/s, USB 3.0
Memory (RAM) - 8GB SAMSUNG DUAL-DDR3 1333MHz (2 X 4GB)
Graphics Card - 1GB AMD RADEON™ HD7770 - DVI,HDMI,2 mDP - DX® 11, Eyefinity 4 Capable

Memory - 500GB 3.5" SATA-III 6GB/s HDD 7200RPM 16MB CACHE

Power Supply - 450W Quiet 80 PLUS Dual Rail PSU + 120mm Case Fan (£29)
Processor Cooling - SUPER QUIET 22dBA TRIPLE COPPER HEATPIPE AMD CPU COOLER (£19)



Everything else is as standard.

This quote comes to £648.00.

The most I can spend is £650 (possibly £675/£690)


Is there any improvements required?



Thanks

Just to point out the 6 core CPU is of no extra benefit to games than a 4 core so whatever build you go for either save the cash or put it towards the super quiet cooler to help keep the CPU a little cooler, anyway another build for you to have a look at so unless anyone comes up with anything better either go with this or the build vanthus posted above as the HD7770 is not going to run skyrim anywhere near as good as the HD7850 even a GTX560 will give you better performance.

Brill, cheers guys!

Won't be ordering for a few weeks yet, so if there's any other suggestions I'd gladly consider them :)
