* INTEL i7 870 (SOCKET 1156), 4x2.93ghz
* 1GB DDR5 GTX560 TI
* GIGABYTE P55
* 4GB DDR3 1600MHZ RAM, KINGSTON
* 22x SATA DVDBURNER +/-, and DVD-RAM (LG)
* 750W "GAMING" Powersupply, SILENT HIGH-END
* 500GB WD HARDDISK,7200RPM
* KABINET ECCO-CASE
I'm currently playing WoW, Crysis, BF BC2, TF2, SC2, Amnesia and soon Rift. Will this rig handle the job? I've been thinking about getting a GTX 480 instead of the 560, but is it worth the extra cash? How many years will I be able to play on max/nearly max with the 560 compared to the 480?
Thanks
