My Custom Gaming PC Rig (Running Crysis 1680x1050 Very High Settings)

[MetalMan2k]

Video Gaming is getting too expensive. I can no longer keep up. I helped make it what it is, I contributed heavily. There will be a day when I can no longer purchase video games. You know, I payed $1,500.00 for an Original Alienware Pc. It was great for a few months, top of the line, then it was old in a blink of an eye. At least with the consoles, I do not have to upgrade PC every time a new game comes out.

[thecrazyguy129]

I have a screen thats like... 24" (Well its an HDTV)

I use an computer to it... but it sucks mad fuck balls.

[urakis]

cool specs, can you please tell me how were you able to install the NetGear WG311T in windows 7? i cant seem to find the appropriate drivers for it, they only have windows xp and vista drivers from their website. hope you can help me out, thanks..

[patetarr]

Is there a gaming pc that has everything you need to play crysis on max settings?

[frozenskipper]

@patetarr yup

[kris10ish]

@patetarr you can but a pc with really good specs but they cost thousands you could biuld one for 500 pounds or 600 400 dollars that can play it on high

[ABL36]

do you really need a sound card too? im building my own right now

[Sypthv8]

@ABL36 No, it's really only if you want a performance sound card.

[ABL36]

jesus how much did that cost you?

[mmhmmlala]

@psyphormer when metro 2033 goes down to 20 dollars ill try it lol

[naughtynige]

ecs mobo? FAIL

[MrNorway1212]

lol only 512mb on ur graphics card....

[nabuL1337]

@MrNorway1212 i have 256 so ... .

[bey0n8]

Okay, I'm building my custom gaming pc right now, and I forgot to put the sticker on the cpu what should I do plz help?

[BloodLineGaming]

@bey0n8 what? I already built mine, just waiting for enough money for a monitor now.

I dont undesrstand your question man. CPu sticker?

[hunkydorey2]

it looks great, i had to run crysis on medium, and even from that i can see a huge difference, but i cant run bioshock 2 though, its time i upgraded my graphics card, i go through games like nobody's bussiness, and pretty soon without upgrade, i wont be able to play that many.

[kynigh]

I also run at very high! 4fps FTW!

[SVGc1993]

You're a faker... That screen (0:20) can only get 1366x768... I have it.

[Sypthv8]

@SVGc1993 lol, dude I have the 22" version. Which one do you have?

[YouHaveMetYourMaker]

@SVGc1993 That's a really bad monitor in that case.

[bluetoaster8822]

@SVGc1993 Uhhh the X223W does 1680x1050...

[Intruder4623]

@SVGc1993

Your an idiot. I've seen that monitor before, and i went ahead to and paused the movie and at 480p resolution with youtube video and on full screen you can even clearly see its 1680x1050, Before you embarrass yourself anymore know what your talk about before hand.

[SVGc1993]

@Intruder4623 Hey you, man... Just shut up your fucking mouth. To tell that i'm an idiot go fuck yourself.

[frozenskipper]

@SVGc1993 he's could be more expensive.

[1ifiction]

Is that saitek eclpise keyboard worth getting you think?

[sammyg666]

were is the best place to get a costom pc or a good gaming pc for a cheep price in the UK

[Jookeydoo]

music??

[fabochango]

i love this mother, it has an gf 8200 512mb hybrid-sli are you using it?

[HSmasteryoda]

lol i got that same keyboard except i have a antec something thousand and a 9600 GT XXX Alpha dog Edition overclocked to 850 mhz and runs at about 135 F

[14snow14]

need help plz i am new to makeing pcs and i am going to make a pc useing.

Intel H55HC Motherboard

Intel Core™ i5 650 processor 3.20GHz

4GB DDR31333MHz

SATA 1TB HDD

Lite-On DH-24AAS Internal DVD Writer

NZXT Tempest ATX Mid-Tower Case

Ultra LSP650 650-Watt Power Supply

XFX Radeon HD 4870 1GB GDDR5 PCIe Dual DVI

will this work on games like that on high setings ?

[alexanderhuang95148]

@14snow14 lol... with that setup, it would nearly rape Crysis! It should run with no worries. I think it would be better to use the i7 core and ati 5800's series if you have the cash.

[HSmasteryoda]

nope not even close to rape about 30 to 40 fps on very high and with 4870 you will lagg like a bitch online

[HSmasteryoda]

just get a 5870 if your a ATI fanboy then you will rape

[alexanderhuang95148]

umm... on his comments, it said on "high settings". Do not really know whether he will turn anti-aliasing on or off. But anyway, you are right about the very high settings. Buy an ATI 5870, a nVidia 285, or a nVidia 295. That will for sure allow you to run it on very high settings and with anti-aliasing, I hope...

[cfmdev2000]

That PC is crap LOL.... Post your FM scores....

[megagabobe1]

you didnt had to say it is crap man, i was just aking if could run that game

[megagabobe1]

do you think my computer will botlleneck?

i got

xfx georce 9800 gt

Intel core 2 duo e7400 2.8Ghz

600w power supply

2 gigs of ram

[BlazeysTutorials]

@megagabobe1

nope.. i have the e7500 very nice setup u have there

[megagabobe1]

Thx man

[BlazeysTutorials]

@megagabobe1

crysis should handle it fine i have a video just cept my card is worse than yours but u can see the processor doesnt bottleneck =D

[Jakerhalf]

How much did this cost altogether excluding Windows 7?

[tripplenipple100]

hey man nice rig. how do you think my pc will run crysis

amd athlon 64 x2 5000+ @ 2.6 ghz

4 gb. corshair ddr2 ram @ 800mhz

HIS ati radeon hd 4850

Western digital 500 gb. hard drive

Windows 7 Home premium 64 bit

[ldragonheart]

@tripplenipple100. ya on high setting but your cpu will bottleneck!

[newdude32]

windows 7 is awsome. and nice computer dude

[willis2k9]

im gonna upgrade my pc

2.2Ghz - 3.1GHz

Geforce 8200 - Geforce 9800GT

[GamersIncorporated]

Is AMD x2 better than a quad processor? This seems like an awesome pc.

[Sypthv8]

No, it's a dual core just at a high frequency. So it's faster at somethings then a lower frequency quad core. But at the same time a quad core that a program can utilize all cores will out perform it with ease.

[GamersIncorporated]

So say a program uses a single core, and the dual and quad run at same frequency they would run the same speed. But if a program can utilizes the 4 cores in the quad it will outperform the dual?

[Sypthv8]

Yep, couldn't of said it better myself.

[newdude32]

i know i just left a comment on your vid but i had to ask, how did you get that aiming reticle?

[djjordie]

How much did this cost for all your parts?

[silverfearn]

wow, this pc is so much better than my mates, hes only got a 486dx33

[p00n90]

geforece 9800 isnt that good

[nicks1258]

i use 2 9800gt's works pretty good but i also have a quad core and an amazing diamond edition motherboard

[wolffang92]

oh and i also have 4gb of DDR3 and im running windows 7 ultimate

[wolffang92]

i have a nvidia 9800 gt superclocked edition, and a faster quad core processor, why can't i play it on very high settings without lag but you can? like if i go on high settings it's perfect but if i go on very high there is some EXTREME lag...

[Sypthv8]

Huh weird, Are you playing on XP or Vista?

[ryanperry90]

that is one badass pc!

[vardanyan20]

i would be happy even if i could run crysis in least settings lol

[martinmenwashere]

how much man?? i want one like yours

[Carplon]

I'm going to build a gaming pc with an i7 920 and two 5870s in crossfire.

[l337z0r]

Uh, you really don't need 2x 5870's, lol. One 5870 will run any current game on max settings, and any game within 2 years on max settings at least.

Buy an extra monitor so you will actually put ONE 5870 to good use (EyeFinity) instead of getting 2 and not utilising any of its power.

Then in future when you get some lag, buy another 5870, it will be way cheaper too.

[Carplon]

You're probably right. I just want to be able to run Crysis on very high settings, 8x AA, AF, and at native resolution (1920x1080) without lag.

[Carplon]

I took your advise. I am only going to buy one 5870. I will still be able to run Crysis (and other games) on max settings without lag. In the future I do plan on buying another one, so that I can play the new resource intensive games such as "Crysis 4", lol. (I also might just upgrade to a 5870x2.)

[Carplon]

I'm only going to buy one monitor, however. If I did multiple monitors, I would want to do three of them (I don't like the bar in the middle where the two come together. With three monitors there are two bars, but neither of them are in the middle.)

[xCailean]

Oh yeah, me2.

[heydude09876]

dude what about the 4870 x2

if you put two of them in crossfire you would have 4 GPU's!!!

[djjordie]

Can someone tell me what parts i should get 0-$2000 AUS? (noob at making comps./stats). Used for games, downloading, browsing, Photoshop, Dream Weaver (Adobe) etc.

Thanks :P

[JohnnyV920]

im thinking about building my own PC, im guessing you built this one yourself. was it difficult? im just scared ill mess something up

[Sypthv8]

It's a lot easier then people put it out to be.

[GeekyNerd27]

lol crysis 4 will b like dx15 so u cant use 5870

[kn0xexe]

Very Nice Keyboard, im getting one of those asap :P

[Mitty678]

i am thinking about building my own computer could someone post a video of how to do it or give me a list of things i could get at best buy (cant buy stuff online) to build it with

[SubscribeBiTCH]

Hey whats up dude im back again.. i finaly ordered my pc . i got it from iBuyPower.. i got a gtx 360 a Quad core from AMD and 4gb ram and windows XP do u think i'll run MW2 on very high???

Thanks again dude for all the help u gave meeeeee thanks thanks thanks alot alot and alot ;)

[Sypthv8]

Lol, you'll have no problem running it on very high.

[xxrogi69]

yeah

[TheRodrigogames]

what are the framerate??

[ARPR641]

Damn! Its running that good on a 9800. How about an ati 4870.

[SubscribeBiTCH]

the ATI 4870 pwns the 9800

[xxrogi69]

9800???? GT or GTX or GX2 9800 GX2 is better hd 4870

[MEISTROROBZTAH]

The ringtone in the background... Metal gear right?. Can you send it to me or give me the link ? that's awsome man!

[codriver777]

how did you get windows 7

[sporktar]

Windows 7 Beta.

[buttercow12]

that must cost alot of money to put together..

[xenareo]

under 1.5k or around it

[hokiesboy08]

What would this run CSS & CoD4, fps wise?

[Sypthv8]

Oh god, CSS runs like 80fps even when the server is loaded with people. CoD4 I'm not exactly sure, staying at least 60fps+, never hangs.

[planterzs]

Hey man how do you deal with the blur with this monitor?

[Sypthv8]

I put my OSD Timeout at 65 and that usually does the trick for me.

[planterzs]

rofl what? On screen display timeout? How does that help with blur? But anyways, I've already returned this monitor. Going for that new 120hz Viewsonic LCD now lol.

[Sypthv8]

I know sounds ridiculous, but I messed with all the settings and said what the hell might as well mess with that, and it actually improved it, don't know how, and don't know why. But yes, this isn't a hardcore gaming monitor, if you are going to spend the money, go for the 120hz monitor.

[THESKITTLEBOYZ]

do you kow an affordable 20x dvd reader

[Sypthv8]

Not 1080p. But yes.

[taltigolt]

thats one kickass gaming rig congratulaions

[1218alex1218]

damn i know why ur still on x2 same reason as me. amd quads are expensive!. everything else on my pc overkills my cpu except my HDD.

[SchaapjeDeluxe]

intel q6600 (default 2.4ghz) @ 3.6ghz overclocked aint expensive :p.

[bpbiah]

Crappy AMD X2 6000 lol, crap computer

[redacid25]

new egg, tiger direct ,alien ware  not ebay

[SimondetArthur]

Good job man, PSU is a little low on watts, I recommend you google "PSU Test", lots of great websites that will recommend to you the approximation PSU watts needed to run.

[Sypthv8]

Actually I did a lot of research on that, my computer would do fine with the 430 watt I had on it before. It only consumes 383 watts, including all USB hook ups/PCI cards and everything.

[vaedriah]

Beafutiful with almost have a similar setup I love this processor

[kc9mav]

This video has really helped me!! I was considering about upgrading my video card but Im going to keep my 9800gt!!

[yotacoma27]

NICE RIG but why did you get such a bad PSU for such a nice rig... thats not somthing to cheap out on

[Sypthv8]

It's actually for an off-brand pretty good, for the price and performance, as well as the quality of the components it is very dependable for my type of system. I could run a GTX260-GTX280 with ease on this type of system, SLI on the other hand is a big no-no.

[Spadez9559]

I was wondering....is this a good gaming computer? i want a good gaming computer that can run games like crysis for under 1000. any advice?

[skalim06]

hey wats the music u used?

[SubscribeBiTCH]

hey dude i was just wondering where did u get all the computer pieces from?? cuz i dont find them all on ebay.. can u tell me plzz..?

Thx,

[krissoccerkid101]

Newegg is the best place to get hardware. Or tigerdirect.

[SubscribeBiTCH]

can u put cd's in ur pc cuz it says no where that u have a cd dvd drive

[Sypthv8]

Oh, lol yes I can, I have a LITE-ON 24X DVD-R iHAS324-08

[animationman45]

You got a nice setup there!!!!

Windows 7 as well!!!!!

[cankarales]

niicee :D

how much FPS do u have while normal gameplay?

[Sypthv8]

It goes anywhere from, 17-34fps, depending on the situation.

[bey0n8]

Man Bro Nice rig

[acidmatar]

hi this might sound confusing but what r the best graphic cards which r reasonably priced ...im getting a i7 and 4 gb ram but i cant get the gtx 295 what other card would be best for high spec games

[Sypthv8]

The 260, 275, or the 280 which is ever is better for your price range.

[zatlasba]

HD 4870x2

[Sypthv8]

ATI cards are great if you don't want anything else but graphic's rendered, basically you get beautiful graphical power, but it doesn't take advantage of Physics as well as NVIDIA, and just pure environment games, so it's your choice really.

[Sypthv8]

Not true at all, two GTX 295's will out do any ATI card on the market in crossfire.

[m0hawk1dwarf]

i ment those 2 in crossfire and i ment a single 295gtx

[nicks1258]

ya i can run crysis 1680x1050 on all enthusiast (9800gt (SLi) oc'd at 725 gpu 1100 memory)

[illmagnified]

Im waiting for the prices to drop on the EVGA

GTX 295's so i can get 2 of them for Quad SLI. That would be just ridiculous- you would need a Quad Core CPU to feed them information fast enough to keep up with those beasts. Either that or buy 3 GTX 285's for Tri SLI- im not sure which would be faster. Or i could always go short term and buy a second 9800GT SuperClocked and get the performance of the older GTX 280 for less than a hundred bucks.

[Sypthv8]

Hell, I say just get two 285's that ridiculous power enough, but short term is never the option, at least not to me, cause you'll end up spending more money in the end anyway.

That computer is good, all you need is a better a slightly better graphics card and Crysis will be that computer's bitch.

[AndyIsBack94]

wow mine better!

[Sypthv8]

Congratulations?

[AndyIsBack94]

I mean the VGA

[VKGchaos]

Round about how much power would you say your computer uses?

[Sypthv8]

About 380 watts.

[VKGchaos]

that helps alot, thanks

[XxACExX69]

Will and 9800 GTX+OC Fit on that motherboard?

[Sypthv8]

My friend has the same board and has a XFX GTS 250 and it fits, they are roughly the same size so, I would say yes.

[gschreiber94]

hows the 9800 GT? im thinking of getting it, will it be good for TF2 and Call of Duty?

[Sypthv8]

If you like to play those games with full settings AND smoothly then get it.

[gschreiber94]

k thanks

[gschreiber94]

i heard the fan on that card is louder then normal, is this true? and is it annoying? ill most likely still buy it though

[Sypthv8]

When at high temps it gets a little loud, but not annoyingly loud, personally, I like to hear my fans to know they are doing their jobs.

[gschreiber94]

yeah me too, thanks for the help, i cant wait to get my 9800 GT

[greken96]

hahhahah totto jag såg din kåd

[xLilxkid24]

why not vista

[SubscribeBiTCH]

cuz it sucks and its slow and just vista takes 1gb of ram

[Sypthv8]

Vista isn't bad at all, its one of those things that is highly under-rated because some people with slow computers had it pre-installed on it. Vista would run fine on a computer like this. Windows 7 runs beautifully. If you want Vista you need not just CPU power, but also GPU power. If you don't balance the two then your going to have a bad experience with it. And really you only need 2GB of RAM with vista, it doesn't suck that much RAM if you have enough on the Graphics card.

[SubscribeBiTCH]

u recommend me xp or vista? cuz my friends tell me that xp is way better then vista and easier to use but im kinda confused because in the future like in 2 years the new games that will come out like cod7 and cod8 will not be made for xp so i will have to upgrade to vista or 7 rite? ... its kinda fucked up ima noob with computers and sorry for asking u such alot of questions :S ...

thanks fo ya help bro :) really apreciate it mayne...

-SubscribeBitCH

[Sypthv8]

Windows XP runs just as fast as Windows 7 runs on my computer, which is essentially Vista, so if you had to get a operating system, I would say spend the money on Windows Vista Ultimate 64-bit, but if you can wait a little bit, get Windows 7 which will be coming out near the end of the year.

[Timbojones0123]

How did he get it to run Very High 1680x1050 I can bearly run it with 1280x1050 and high aax2

[Sypthv8]

Nice.

[SubscribeBiTCH]

yeah and how did u get windows XP did u pay an extra for it?

[Sypthv8]

I got a Windows XP Pro disk for free actually from TigerDirect when I bought my Hard drive. You can buy Hard drives that are pre-loaded with operating systems.

[GameSiphon]

Wow, how did you make it run so smooth? I play exactly the same settings as you with my HD4850 and I only get an average of 20. :/

[Sypthv8]

No Anti-Aliasing and Anti strophic filtering?

[GameSiphon]

No AA, dunno about AF because I can't seen option for it... I just put it on very high.

[Sypthv8]

Hmm... all I could think of is just make sure your computer is free of any viruses, and have the most updated bios for your motherboard, and drivers for the graphics card.

[GameSiphon]

It's very hard for me to believe that it's because of the computer. When I first got the computer I installed the Crysis demo same day ( after I had installed drivers ect ) and back then the FPS was even lower at Very High. ( I'm using 9,4 drivers atm which are a bit stabler than it was back then. )

I've ran 3dmark06, got 12,5k 3dmarks which seems pretty high.

[Sypthv8]

You have to remember Crysis isn't coded really well, it runs better on some computers then others, and I truly think 3dmark is a joke, I got 10k on it, yet I can run Crysis and other games just as well as computers with 16k+ scores. I don't really know if it has to do with ATI being your graphics card, but I'm sure there shouldn't be that big of a difference compared to my 9800GT.
