Is it worth the money?

Will it play games like? Cod, Rage, Asssasins creed?

Can i just plug in my hdmi to my hd tv and thats it? will i also get sound?

Thanks in advance..

with the gtx 580 fitted it should play every new game for years to come, games like cod rage and assasins creed should run very well i have a gtx 580 and i was running battlefield 3 at 1080p on high settings at 60 frames a sec. battlefield 3`s frostbite 2 engine is arghuably the best graphics engine on the scene atm and the most gpu intesive so in short the answer is yes. As far as sound goes yes you will get sound aslong as you connect the pc to the correct hdmi port on your tv, in my case it was hdmi 3 the dvi/hdmi port 1 wouldnt work neither would hdmi 2 so you just need to find the port that works. hope this helps.

dont forget the extra warranty for a fiver.

also i'd change the hdd for a caviar black drive, will perform faster than the green. but slightly more noisy.

Ok so anyway i can make it cheaper, but make it run all current games at a high settings

thx.
