I would want this PC for gaming ideally probably the most graphic intensive games I would want to run would be: Skyrim, The Witcher 2 and Crysis 2. Now do you think this spec could run these games on high to ultra? Also will it be able to run a dual monitor setup. One monitor with a game on and the other for general web surfing. Thanks in advance.

That isn't bad at all, however, i would get this as it would mean you could sli later, it also has better cooling and a much better screen. I realize it is over £100 more but it really would be worth it, here it is:

It could certainly play Skyrim and the Witcher 2 on their highest settings without a problem. Obviously Crysis 2 is a bit different, haha.

here's something to look at, if you want to know how well the 560 ti plays: (an awesome gpu by the way, would definitely recommend it) http://uk.geforce.com/hardware/desk...assins-of-kings-nvidia-geforce-gtx-560-ti-ops

As for your spec, what is your budget? £1k I'm assuming?

For dual monitors you will need the 2gb version of that graphics card which is like £20 more, not much. Also if you can afford the extra £40 I would get the Iiyama 22" screen not the standard screen (the standard one isn't HD).

You should be fine for the 1Gb for 2 monitors, however, you have no chance of gaming on the two though. On my old Pc world laptop, I have 256mb integrated graphics and a crappy cpu, I can still play COD 1 on my laptop screen and have skype or iTunes open on another screen. However, the external connection is VGA but that shouldn't make a huge amount of difference.

looks good but upgrade to a sata 6gb/s mobo so you can take advantage of the caviar black speeds also the led monitors are awesome and would look much better.

Thanks for the feedback. I am gonna get an LED Montor for Christmas and have the other for general use so this is just for a few months. Which do you think is better?
