Hello there, my name is cameron and i have recently ordered computer parts for my dell i have ordered a new motherboard,graphics card and new pentium 4 processer,and 2 new 512 ram sticks (making me have 1 gig of ram)from new egg.com[www.newegg.com]newegg is a great website u can get comp parts really cheap and its al legal and that stuff, so i was just wondering since i am gonna have all this new hard wear and ill probably over clock it later i was wondering if u guys have any game suggestions i am very intrested in F.E.A.R and Call of duty 2(which i have played and is very smooth)so if u have any suggestions of what i should get or anything like that pleaze just say something.
Yeah, newegg is the greatest. What kind of games do you like? Is it just FPS like FEAR, COD2, HALO, or do you like racing games, or other types of games, too? My Favorite games are Call of Duty 2, Age of Empires 3, Civilization 3 (and 4, I just haven't gotten that one yet), I also like the Need for Speed series.
Can you tell us specifically what parts you bought? I am most interested about the video card since you are asking about game recommendations.
Also, just for future reference, since you are asking for game recommendations this topic would best fit in the Gaming forum. I will move it there once you have replied so you don't think it was deleted or anything.
As for game recommendations: I highly recommend you check out Civilization 4, Half-Life 2 and The Chronicles of Riddick: Escape From Butcher Bay.

athlon FX57 Radeon X1800XT 512mb or 2 7800GT's 256mb or 1 7800GTX 512 CORSAIR XMS 2GB (2 x 1GB) 184-Pin DDR SDRAM Dual Channel Kit
that is my recoomendation for F.E.A.R.
Yes, i reccomend winning the lottery to pay for that gear too.
S.W.E, why did you use this as an \"Upgrade\"? You have bought effectively a new system here, and you would probably do better by taking a new case, putting your parts in and adding a hard disk and DVD-RW drive.
If you don't know how to overclock yet, I would reccomend reading some guides thoroughly before attempting to do so (from within the BIOS, at least). Its a rather easy process once you are familiar with it, but when used with in-experienced hands, you could destroy your processor and possibly more of your shiny new parts.
