I'm looking at getting a reasonably high end computer to play sims and other games on. The only problem is I haven't got a clue when it comes too computers. I've put togther a build, but not sure if it's too much money and too much computer. Or if there's places to save and others to improve. I'd appreciate any help. Cheers all. Gunfighter
