Project Reality Forums

Hey, I'm building a mid-range for my dad. He is on a tight budget so I have selected the following.

Will be be able to run project reality smoothly? I intend on overclocking the graphics card, 850MHZ core clock and 4200MHZ QDR on the memory. If I am lucky and the X3's fourth core isnt defective he will have a X4 but that won't really matter because PR only uses one core. His current monitor has a resolution of 1440x900. He has a case, optical drives etc.

with that thing you can run PR twice...
always remember: bf2 engine is from 2005
so don?t worry

Moved to Hardware & Custom Builds discussion.

Are you missing an optical drive?

If you are going for overclocking you might want to get better fans as well. A decent case with nice air flow characteristics too, I suggest.

Not missing a optical drive, he already has one. I figure I'll put a bunch of fans in the case.
Here is the case I intend to assemble his PC in. I removed the fans etc.

I don't know if he needs USB3 and SATA6 - that board has neither.

Assuming he didn't buy his optical drive later this year, I highly doubt it. The hard drive he posted is only SATA 3 and he would only need USB 3.0 if he plans to buy a new mouse or some other accessory supported only by 3.0.
