Great gaming computer?

Q. I'm looking for a gaming computer that will run on full settings and will not be laggy. I mostly play Dayz and I want a computer that can handle that and a bunch of games easily. I don't know much about computers and I don't want to spend of 1200$
Thx

A. Yahoo answers will only allow up to 10 links, so I have to leave out the not so important components. Just copy paste in the search field on Newegg to find them, I will give the full name but no link for those.

BEST GAMING DESKTOP PC BUILD FOR THE MONEY (under $1,000.00USD for the tower only)
Monitor, keyboard and mouse can add from $175 to over $500, depending on size and model you want.
All prices are in $USD and in the USA, current as of December 2012 and they might be slightly different one way or the other by now.
Also, some shipping charges may apply to some of the items.
Add your state sales tax if you reside in NJ, CA or TN - that's where Newegg has warehouses.
Look for similar parts on Amazon, Tiger Direct, etc if you want to avoid paying Uncle Sam.

FACT: INTEL IS A MUCH BETTER PROCESSOR FOR GAMING THAN ANY AMD.

Price and setup building a gaming computer?

Q. I've decided to build a computer for gaming though i don't want to customize it on some website,
there are many other posts about this kind of thing i realize
i just want one MORE RECENT (2012 february-march)
So the price cap is about 1000-1200 dollars,
i COULD go over that but it would take me a bit more time to get the money so i would have to be prepared for the computer to last longer to account for that time :)
So I'm looking for a comp that can run all the new games etc. etc. decent amount of ram, at least 6 gb
NOT Looking for the monitor, keyboard, mouse just the computer
sorry I'm dragging this on but i don't want to edit this post a million times :P
If it helps, i would be running 2 klipsch-thx speakers and a subwoofer, so i dunno if that has anything to do witht eh sound card...
So really I'm looking for a complete set up, like if someone out there could list all the different parts/specs of parts i should get but whats most important to me is SPECIFIC parts as i am not that great at rummaging to find compatible hardware

Thanks in advance!
EDIT: I already have Windows 7 Ultimate that i can put on another computer just a heads up:)
ALSO
I made an email for this
PLEase if anyone is willing to further help me as I'm sure i will run into problems

Now I put a solid state drive there for your boot drive and any main programs you will be running, any media I would put on a second drive that is a normal HDD like 1TB or more, they are pretty costly and your selection is limited still with things still being cleaned up in Thailand. expect to pay another hundred or so depending on the size, just read reviews and pick one. I'm not sure what you will be doing graphic wise but the first card should be more than sufficient, and if not its an easy upgrade. You could go the Intel route but I prefer AMD and that 8 core processor is nuts. You could also get an after market fan which is another $50 or so. but all in all those all solid top of the line products with all the latest technologies, you will be future proofed for a very long time and you have plenty of room for upgrading if a new processor comes out or something. also you will need a copy of windows unless you already have one which would set you back another $100. also in benchmarks the AMD effects blows away the I5s and anything in the price range.

Which needs a faster computer to run:Autocad or 3ds Max?

Q. I know they're for different things, But I was just wondering which would need a better computer.

I've looked at the system requirements, But for AutoCad it doesn't say much. So I'd like to get some user opinion.

Specifically, I'm most concerned about the graphics card. So please take that into account too.

Also, I'm talking about comparing the 2012 versions of each, But if performance in the past is still relevant that's fine too.

Thanks.
Edit:Still take CPU, Etc into account as well

A. The only time you need 'fast' is rendering on 3Ds Max. The AMD64 Phenom-II x6 CPU is the most remarkable video rendering setup I have ever worked with and that is backed up by cpu comparision charts. 1 minute of playback video takes 1:05 processing time on the AMD with SATA drives running 7200 RPM wired with an ASUS motherboard. My AMD64 Athlon x1 takes 20 minutes to do the same video.

With 3Ds Max you have a choice in preferences whether you want the viewports to be OpenGL, or the AutoCADDY graphics library, or maybe they have added the Microsofty way by now. You add an nVidia card for vers. OpenGL 1 and vers. OpenGL 2. ATI Radeon is only supporting the OpenGL 2.0 version.

Even though ATI is AMD and one day the GPU/cpu chips may merge, I have always like nVidia because they support Linux so well. The colors seem brighter on ATI.

So, admit the machine you want will see heavy Gaming and that merits the costs of a high-end GPU card. The i7 does games better because software makers have optimized the Intel for their software.

Original Question

Would you say the processor is more important for gaming? or the graphics card?

A. Gameplay is 90% about the performance of the GPU (Video card)
Any modern CPU will be able to keep up with all but the most expensive video card setups.

Where to buy a gaming computer?

Q. I want to buy a Gaming PC but i don't know where to get it and i wont to know trusted places because some of them don't look professional. The reason i don't wont to build one is because i don't wont to mess it up and be out the money and still not have a PC. ( Not Alien ware because they are a little over priced)

A. A gaming computer is something you build, you don't just buy one from a store, really.
It is not at all hard to build a gaming PC, even a 13 year old kid can do it, and I've seen lots of them here that did just that.
Very detailed instructions are available if you Google on the subject, even Newegg.com has video tutorials on building a PC.
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=lPIXAtNGGCw&feature=player_embedded
Buy all your parts from Newegg.com or Amazon.com, they are the cheapest

All branded computers sold in stores (Dell, HP, Lenovo, Sony, Acer, Asus and such) are not 100% fitted for gaming, as the manufacturers will always try to use the cheapest hardware they can find and sell for the highest profit possible.
Even if one such computer has a good processor and graphics card, it will most likely have a cheap motherboard, with an older model chipset. Also all branded computers are setup by the manufacturers not to allow for any overclocking, as it will mean a loss for them to fix or replace damaged hardware while in warranty.

Here is a complete list of components to buy for a very good to best gaming PC build:

All prices are in $USD, from newegg.com, and current as of April 2012.

PROCESSOR: Best budget processor: Intel Core i3-2130 ($150) - best budget 4 threads, dual core processor.
Best value and performance processor: Intel Core i5-2500K quad core ($220)
Best in class, price accessible processor: Intel Core i7-2600K quad core ($320)
CPU COOLER: Get a good after market processor heat sink and 120mm fan. The stock Intel CPU cooler is crap.
Either a Cooler Master Hyper 212 EVO or Sunbeam Twister 120 - Cost $35 to $50
Or you can get a water cooler, like Corsair H60 or H80 ($70 or $105)
MOTHERBOARD: For any processor above, get a motherboard with socket LGA1155 and chipset Z68, at least this $120 GIGABYTE GA-Z68MA-D2H-B3 LGA 1155 Intel Z68 HDMI SATA 6Gb/s USB 3.0 Micro ATX Intel Motherboard:
http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16813128495
MEMORY (RAM): Both the processor and the motherboard feature fast dual channel memory, so only buy RAM in identical pairs, to enable dual channel memory operation.
Get an 8GB dual kit (two x 4GB) DDR3 1600 G.Skill Ripjaws X Series or Corsair Vengeance ($50)
http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16820231428 (8GB two x 4GB)
http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16820145345 (8GB two x 4GB)
GRAPHICS CARD: at least a GeForce GTX460 Fermi or AMD/ATI Radeon HD 6790 (or better), choose any with a 2200 score or higher from this benchmark list:
http://www.videocardbenchmark.net/high_end_gpus.html
The best graphics card would be GeForce GTX680 or GTX580
HARD DRIVE (HDD): 1TB Seagate Barracuda or Samsung Spinpoint SATA III (6.0Gb/s) 7200rpm, 64MB Cache hard drive ($115)
http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16822148840
PSU: A good power supply, 600 watts or bigger (depends on the graphics card you choose), 80 plus certified form Thermaltake, Enermax, Cooler Master, Antech, Corsair or OCZ.
PC CASE: Any PC Case (full or mid tower), with bottom mount for the power supply, either ATX or Î¼ATX (micro ATX) size.
I recommend either any of the Sentey Series (Sentey Extreme Division Arvina is what I got) or Cooler Master HAF ($60 to $150)
http://www.newegg.com/Store/Brand.aspx?Brand=13670&name=The-Sentey-at-Newegg&Tpk=Sentey
http://www.newegg.com/Product/ProductList.aspx?Submit=ENE&DEPA=0&Order=BESTMATCH&N=-1&isNodeId=1&Description=haf&x=0&y=0
OPTICAL DRIVE: any cheap $15 to $25 DVD multi writer drive
OS: Windows 7 Home Premium 64bit OEM for your operating system ($100):
http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16832116986

Cost: From $800 on up to over $1500, depending on processor, graphics card, power supply and case you choose.

A good, full HD 1080p (1920x1080), LED backlit 27inch monitor will cost you around $260 to over $300.
Any cheap USB mouse and keyboard for about $30 to $50, or spend more for expensive gaming style ones.

Good luck.

The only other viable solution would be to custom order a gaming PC from places like AVADirect, iBuyPower, CyberPowerPC and such. They will build a gaming PC with almost all specs of your choice but you will pay considerably more as if you build that yourself.
DO NOT buy Alienware, they are Dell crap and also way overpriced.

Original Question

Will need for speed most wanted 2012 work on Pentium 4?

Q. Processor Celeron or centrino
Speed 2.9 ghz
Ram 4 Gb
hdd 120 gb
graphics 1 gb

I want to run games as Need for speed most wanted 2012, battlefield etc

A. Are you on that computer right now. Well not sitting on top of it. That would probably be a bit uncomfortable. If you are in fact using it as you read click on this http://www.systemrequirementslab.com/cyri . YOu would then choose NFSMW 2012 from the list and let it scan your system and return a report which will show how well your system might perform. http://postimage.org/image/83kbmiwhf/ is an example of that from a while back.

If you do not have that computer you MIGHT be able to use http://www.game-debate.com/ . That CPU is OOOOOOOOOOOLLLLLDDD duh.Ok it is archaic. Anyways you would enter your game in the top right search box. Choose your game from the list and then you enter er um choose your major components manually. It will then grade your setup from 1(WORST) to 10(BEST) with that particular game in mind.
