For your budget bg92's spec would be hard to beat.

cheers man this a a huge help i really appricate it. also do you think its worth me spending a little extra and getting the 8GB SAMSUNG DUAL-DDR3 1333MHz (2 X 4GB) instead of the 4Gb. or is will that be enough ram? thanks so much for the help

4GB RAM is enough for gaming at the moment,but considering RAM isn't all that expensive it wouldn't be a bad idea to upgrade to 8GB,makes it a bit more future proof.
