What error messages are you getting?

I am not sure if 1.86 Gb is enough. Have you downloaded both parts? Part 1 on its own is 1.73 Gb according to my BitTorrent file. Part 2 is 1.59 Gb. Total 3.32 Gb!

The basic options you require are this P55, 5870, i7 860 I would steer away from AMD, the bits you have in your current PC should still be OK.

If you are happy to build yourself I will fish them all out individually for you. You will still be able to use credit card to pay.

Have a look at this thread http://forum.overclock3d.net/showthread.php?32348-1500-to-spend-what-to-get&p=368323#post368323

I would get samsung spinpoint hard drives, but if they are not an option then stick with what comes ( I dont think the seagate s will be that fast though)


I don't know how much of a saving you are trying to make and I don't know how much performance boost you will see with triple channel memory, I would have to look into that but I am not surit is much tbh.

Software is all free less the OS so you may be able to pick that up elsewhere and geta proper disk with it not OEM stuff.

extras logitech speakers - ha ha ha Smile
and definate no to wireless keyboard and mouse unless you jack them up to a car battery, nothing worse than battery running out mid game = death.
