So just as a quick Thank you , I went with the i7 3.4 4770 , with the 256 SSD and R9 270X Stand Alone is running at max (Ultra) settings with no over clocking at at steady 60-70 fps in open areas , Getting around 45 -55 in towns at full 1920 x 1080 Died three times last night through bandits though , No warning just KOS - all for a tin of :beans: :rolleyes:

Thank you for your help, as I already have a xbox one and PS4 I'm gonna get the i7 4th gen with the R9 270X and SSD :) Here's to finally going back to Cherno

I'm curious too, As I've gone through comparison sites for the 2 cards and the GTX 670 has been winning hands down http://www.game-debate.com/gpu/index.php?gid=1863&gid2=592&compare=radeon-r9-270x-vs-geforce-gtx-670 Is there something I'm missing here..... :unsure:

Thank you , Turns out the RAM is actually 2 x 4GB :) - I've spec'd up similar machines on http://www.pcspecialist.co.uk/build-your-own-pc/ And the cost is more then the Alienware as the Alienwares are DELL refurbs saving me around 30% whilst still having a years warranty. Decisions, decisions - One thing I heard was that the SA is processor intensive are you sure I wouldn't benefit in the long run getting an i7? I think I'm leaning towards this though, If you think the 270X over the GTX 670 then I would get an SSD thrown in for the same cost here : http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/Dell-Alienware-X51-R2-3-9ghz-i7-8GB-1TB-256-SSD-Radeon-R9-270X-WIFI-e579-/351029294377?pt=UK_Computing_DesktopPCs&hash=item51baf9f529 I get A further £100 off that price , Same for this one http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/Dell-Alienware-X51-R2-i5-4430-3-2Ghz-Nvidia-GTX-660-DVD-WiFi-8GB-1TB-W8-/221401994121?pt=UK_Computing_DesktopPCs&hash=item338c965389

Anyone ???

My friend had a similar set up and it was pretty crappy

BUMP

HI All , I have previously been playing the SA Alpha on a Laptop with crappy specs whilst saving for a new desktop. I have found a few good deals ( Or at least what I consider them to be ) for the following - Model: Alienware X51 R2 (Matte Stealth Black with Dark Chrome Accents) Processor:Intel® Core™ i7-4770 (Quad Core HT, 3.90GHz TurboBoost, 8MB, w/ HD Graphics 4600) Ram: 16392 MB (2x8GB 1600 MHz DDR3 Dual Channel) HDD: 2 TB SATA Hard Drive (7200 RPM) GPU: 2 GB GDDR5 NVIDIA GeForce GTX 670 Optical Drive: Slot-loading Blu-Ray Disc Combo (DVD+/-RW + BD-ROM) Wi-Fi: Dell Wireless 1506 Card + Bluetooth 4.0 OS: Windows 8 (64-Bit OS) Power supply: Alienware™ 330 Watt Power Supply, UK 3 Pin Lead Cost of £769.00 Model: Alienware X51 R2 (Matte Stealth Black with Dark Chrome Accents) Processor:Intel® Core™ i7-4770 (Quad Core HT, 3.90GHz TurboBoost, 8MB, w/ HD Graphics 4600) Ram: 1 x 8GB 1600 MHz DDR3 Dual Channel) SSD: 256 SSD HDD: 1TB SATA Hard Drive (7200 RPM) GPU: 2GB DDR5 AMD Radeon R9 270X Optical Drive: Slot-loading (DVD+/-RW + BD-ROM) Wi-Fi: Dell Wireless 1506 Card + Bluetooth 4.0 OS: Windows 8 (64-Bit OS) Power supply: Alienware™ 330 Watt Power Supply, UK 3 Pin Lead Cost of £769.00 or this which I can get for £630 with a handy paypal voucher from ebay. http://www.ebay.co.u...=item2ecfd4a63c Can anyone give me an idea of what FPS to expect and if they will run it on high and up Settings Any help would be appreciated
