How about instead of us giving you abunch of different combo's of computer hardware you tell us what you are looking at and we tell you if its good or not.

An even better idea would be to search because who knows how many times I've answered this question now. I have no problem helping anyone who wants PC help and I've gotten a few PM's about the question, but you are wanting us to do all the work for you.

That's to broad. A P4 is a good CPU if you want to run a server/linux box, its not good if you want to play Crysis. I can't just tell you 'good', give me something to work with. What are your plans with this PC, whats your budget, what do you plan on putting in it?

The P4 was just a bad CPU. It was supposed to make up for its slowness by scaling up to 10 GHz but never got anywhere near that.

I have AMD FX-4100
AMD 6670 2GB
8GB RAM

Thats my set up and that runs all tracks at full graphics at about 125FPS, some where near them specs is what you probs want, also that runs most games at high detail and only cost like £400

I LOL'd

I can't push mine to full and i have:

ASUS GTX 570 Direct CU II overclocked with 100mhz on engine, 300mhz shaders and memory 500mhz. (a stock 570 reference is comparable to the 6970)
Intel core i5 3570K overclocked to 4.3ghz
Corsair vengence 1600mhz 8gb



Back to the topic. To run it decently i would go for at least a gtx 650ti or equivalent. The new shader maps takes a massive beating on the graphics card so i would recommend buying pretty much the best you can afford. a 660ti or equivalent would be preferred. A decent CPU is also wanted. Generally you say that Intel is the best while AMD provides the best bang for the buck. If you play many other games go for something like a medium to high end intel core i5. put decent RAM in it, at least 4 gb. Preferably 8gb. Of course, everything depends on your budget.

Would a Intel i5 7970 with a amd radeon 6450 with 1GB and 8gb of ram. I would like to run all the outdoor tracks on high or close to that.
