I need to buy a new pc... just wondering if this pc's graphic card is good for playing sro...

or should i ask them to change the graphic card or something?
I'm not after extremely high graphics but just graphics that can be kept at a good level while still maintaining FPS, and a graphic card that doesnt burn out or anything... so is this one good?
oh and is the pc actually worth buying or is it a rip off?

and what about this one? its the cheaper (and slightly worse, obviously) alternative:

Thanks in advance

(P.S. keep the computer talk real simple lol)

iv said it before and il say it again

most pc's will play sro good

if you want a bench mark, try using more demanding games eg: 'will it play crysis?'

if you want a good computer nvidia 8800 graphic card upwards, amd processor (same as you got in them ones you listed), 2gb or more ram

sound, monitor, keyboard + mouse all dont matter so much

Good info, but also note that if you're buying a pc dont get like the most expensive CPU ever and get a crappy card and think that because of the good CPU everything will be fine. You should balance out things and you could come up with a very nice PC

I'm not a fan of the 9600. Better to upgrade to the 9800 or 8800.

I wouldn't even pay 1/2 of the price of those PCs. The expensive one is like 1400 euros but it only has like 450-600 euros worth of parts.

just buy best price-performance stuff,
like e6750 proccessor , 8800gt card with 2-3gb ddr2 will play not only silkroad but any other game and will play few in future as well

anyways both computer uve pointed will play silkroad just fine, the first one will fly tho...
but to be serious these 1gb video cards not always a best choise...

even 8600gt will run crysis on low-med settings on almost playable FPS

i dont see any point getting cards past 8800gtx right now, they wont perform a whole better than this one but the price you will pay is gonna rise so alot

so if i get the 2nd computer (worth 999 euros) and ask them to replace the graphic card with an 8800gtx, would that it work?
