What is your budget? What else do you do with your PC i.e. listen to music, video editing or music publication...? Before we spec a machine for you, we need to know what you'll be doing with it! :D[/quote:9c633e31ad]

here you go Grasshopper, my 2p worth, It aint fantastic, but it fits your spec and Budget

http://www.aria.co.uk/NewDisplaySystems.asp?BrandID=19

Vista Standard 2800, might work for you
with the 19\" TFT Upgrade , and a guestimate of £15 delivery ( may depend on where you live )

it will be about £380 including VAT

now the speakers, they will make noise but they are not going to be great
but you have 17 quid including VAT spare


Vista Extra 3200

This will be better, but again speakers are nothing to speak of and even dropping down to a 17\" TFT it will be around £450 ( again location might change that )

Info on The Chipset and GPU
http://www.nvidia.com/page/gpumobo_6150-430_features.html

BTW you game specs ask for
NVIDIA GeForce 4 family
This has a NVIDIA GeForce 6 family GPU
However, as it uses system memory it will use part of the Main Computers Memory

It has a DVD±RW+RAM Drive in it


Not bad for Sub £400 Inc VAT, that is with a 19\" Monitor as well
