As a follow up to the 3D Vision article on NVIDIA's new 3D stereoscopic technology, I have compiled components for a mid-range system. I have not built it, but this is merely my idea of what an ideal game system would be at this level. Of course, this is just a list of parts and would need to be assembled. If you don't have experience doing that, you shouldn't be building your own system as some of these parts can damage very easy if you don't know what you are doing. I have been building my own computers like this for over 7 years and know about the "gotchas" associated with doing that. Perhaps there will be a follow-up article on that if you guys and hot gamer chicks are interested in building your own custom gaming rig. :)
Here is a mid-level system, which will run great for most games, under $2000. I have included gaming keyboard and mouse, which are of course optional if you want to keep cost down.
I have not included speakers, but if you do not have surround sound, I highly recommend you invest in it, especially for a realistic 3D gaming experience. Onkyo offers a great product with 7.1 surround sound for under $500, the HTS5200.

Hi brandon, thanks for visiting topgraphicz.blogspot.com
ReplyDeleteI did a small research after reading this post. Unfortunately the total price for this build is still a bit too high in my country. It will cost about $2800 here. :-S
Well, keep in touch ;)
Great posts here ^^
