Hi im getting a custom built computer for christmas and im going to get all the parts seperatly of course. I would like to get some feedback on what you guys would think is top of the line pc parts that would work above average for civ 4. Not the best of the best, just very good. Tell me what you would suggest for each part. I have a couple years of experience with computer hardware im just not sure which would be the best overall.
Im looking for best graphics for graphics cards and fastest performance and capibilities for everything else also.
Parts im looking for are:
-Processor brand and model
-Video card (AGP or nvidea unless theres something better.)
-type and brand of mother board
-type and brand of RAM
-case design/type/brand
-cooling system
-type of monitor specifically.
-type of sound card if a good one is not built into mother board.
-any other hardware that im forgetting about give me a good type and model
-A Price range anywhere from $1000-$5000 is acceptable
-if you can try and give me a really really nice set up and a plain above average set up.
My current pc specs right now are:
Sony Vaio case
1GB of RAM
2.8 pentium 4 processor
some basic speakers and built in sound card
ATI radeon 9800 graphics card (looking for something better)
Ill figure out what type of harddrive, dvd drives, and peripherals il need.
Any other advise is greaty appreciated
