New PC game

I gave my children pass systems in recent years.  It's time that I buy a new system.

When I receive systems for my part, I get the line of precision (lately 7910 Tower and M6700).

Right now they're playing minecraft and just started steam games.  This morning, they tried subnautica and it won't work on their machines (old Precision 390 due lack of ram) and old precision 4300 mobile for the same reason, then an old dimension 4700 for many reasons.

I'm looking for a new system (I need two).  The. I'm looking is a 8700 XPS with intel 4790 and 745 of Nvidia.  With 12 GB of ram, it is about $ 850 after rebate (still need to call dell rep) online.

In any case, this system won't be enough for minecraft and steam games or do I have to watch something else?  Only other thing I thought was a clarification of 1700, but which does not come with a video card and play for similar specs to the 8700 is a good bit more.  I have not watched systems alien ware no more.

I'm looking to build a system.  Just to check prices, build something similar to the XPS specification came out more.

Thanks for the help and all recommendations welcome.

Thank you

Mike

I think I'll go with the 8700 XPS with I7 4790, GTX745 and 16 GB of ram.

I'll start by there is no "right" answer, so I'll share my thoughts.

If the goal is a game machine, desktop and web, then the system seems unbalanced.

-16 GB of memory is not necessary, 8 GB is more than enough.
-Earn 81 Pro? Not sure why this is necessary. It adds remote office, ability to be on a corporate domain and the built-in support for device bit locker encryption.
- And, the GTX 745 will be the factor limiting major for the games.

It will be great for minecraft and some fast action games played at lower resolutions or lower visual quality, but it will analyze if a current game list in 1080 p.

However, this 8700 XPS will be perfect for an update of the graphics card future as the price of graphics cards come down, so it's a solid base.

However, if you are looking to balance the performance of game for a dollar, $600 (see link below) system will out perform the XPS 8700 with a GTX 745 to the game, and $1000 system will run circles around it. (Note that prices do not have an operating system)

As I said, there is no right answer. For a turnkey system the 8700 is great, and it is a solid basis for the upgrades, however I do not think the GTX 745 will be good enough for very long.

If it were me, I'd find a way to get a GTX inside 960 and then leave it alone for several years.

Good luck

  • Windows 7 has not installed windows with the new installation games

    Hi all

    I just installed a fresh copy of Windows 7 Pro, but I noticed that no games have been installed with it (Solitare, Minesweeper, etc.). What is happening with this? Are no games included with the Pro version or have not installed? How can I get back them?

    Thank you!

    Hello.

    By default the Professional SKU does not install any games.

    You can install them yourself by clicking on start-> Control Panel-> programs-> Windows features turn on or off. Paul Smith - MVP for Windows desktop experience... I crawled off NNTP - for now.

  • New keyboard - arrival time is 2 weeks. Is - this excessive?

    HI guys,.
    I'm new to this forum, so please be gentle lol.

    I just brought a Toshiba laptop not even three months ago. Now the keypad has failed, and they told me after a week where he is in the shop it would be another two weeks until arrived it from parts. That Toshiba had not in Australia.
    I'm a little disappointed by that, because it's a new computer and you would think that x amount of spare parts would be part in Australia. Or even have quick access to a service center.

    Now, I work in logistics and understanding of the issues in play, but two weeks?

    Hello

    When you have a hardware problem, please contact Toshiba service directly and not ask for help in some store. They have no idea what either. Who knows what they are doing and where they ordered the new keyboard.

    So I recommend you to visit the Toshiba support under http://www.mytoshiba.com.au/service-centres page and communicate directly with the service of Toshiba. It's a warranty issue and you will get new free game.

  • My machine will be able to handle a new graphics card?

    Hi all, first time here and really know what was going on inside my PC...

    I have a HP Pavilion slimline s3644uk, as he came out of the box, hardware wise.

    Windows Vista 64-bit, home premium SP2

    AMD Phenom 8250 triple core processor 1.9 Ghz

    4 GB of system memory

    The graphics card is a Nvidia GeForce 9300 GE, with the latest drivers installed

    My Question:

    I would like to run some (not new) stretegy games - Civ5 for example, but even that does not work smoothly or at all unless I turn off some of the most demanding in the features of the game. I guess it's the graphics card that holds me back, as if it isn't that new, I would have thought the PC itself has been up to, and anyway, I can't afford to replace.

    Yes, 1) do I need a better card, or the pC is not as good I think?

    (2) will be this system handle / stand a better card (it's a small enough case, the slimline...), or should I just wait until I can afford a new PC.

    (3) If Yes, what is the best card I can reasonably treat - didn't need to be sharp. I receive a techie to install for me, that wouldn't have a scoobie how myself.

    If it is relevant, I'm in the United Kingdom.

    Any help gratefully received

    See you soon

    Leon

    Your power supply is rated at 160 watts, which is on the low side for upgrading your graphics card. I tried to look to the top of the graphics in the HP slimline computers recent cards and their power supplies are rated 220 watts. You may be able to use a new graphics spec'd HP but very likely detail maps do not work.

  • Cannot find itunes on my windows 10 pc game

    my Vista PC is dead and no way to recover the files so don't want to download my iTunes on my new computer game library. However I don't see any way to activate iTunes on my windows 10 pc game

    If you need to manually activate iTunes game, change your music to iCloud library settings by following these steps:

    1. Open iTunes. Make sure you have the latest version.
    2. Click Connect and enter the Apple ID and password you use for iTunes game.
    3. Mac: In the MenuBar at the top of your computer screen, choose iTunes > Preferences.
      Windows: Press control and B on your keyboard to activate the iTunes menu bar, then choose iTunes > Preferences. Learn more about the menus in iTunes for Windows.
    4. Click the general tab, and then select the music library to iCloud.

    After have connected you with the Apple ID and password you use with iTunes game and turn on iCloud music library, iTunes is and post your library. You can monitor the progress of the correspondence and the download in the upper-right corner of iTunes, and you can suspend and resume the process at any time.

    When iTunes is finished, your music matched and transferred appears in iTunes in the My Music tab. A download icon will appear next to all content that is in your music library to iCloud and not on your computer.

  • How to set up the new HP laptop with the bad hard drive notebook

    Children a new Hp laptop in June.  The hard drive has been getting gradually stronger and is obviously about to go, with a blue error screen forcing a roll back of the computer.  I did a full backup on an external hard drive and I'm back for a replacement.  Should I make a recovery disk and reinstall from the disc when I get the new laptop, or should I just plug the external hard drive and transfer files via?  A guy at work said using the recovery disk is the way to go, because it would be to reinstall Norton and other programs, we have installed., but I thought that backup external hard drive was supposed to be the way to do this

    Because you have found a replacement of mobile complete, it will be installed on the 'old' came with.

    If you have installed a new programs, games etc_then Yes restore the Image would be the best way to get back it quickly. This would assume that the replacement is the same model or very similar from a Image Restore the drivers also which should match the material of the machine.

  • Is my brand new defective Xoom?

    I have a Xoom Wifi I've had less than a week. Everything seems to work OK except that it has a problem of downloading large data files, data files for example game (Gameloft). I bought a few games Gameloft and when downloading additional data, I get the error message that says: there was a problem with the download and try again. Now, I also have a Moto Droid X, which is about a year and a half and I just got a new Gameloft game for her, and she had no problem download 400 + MB of data for this game on the wifi. But the Xoom can surely not DL data. I tried everything in the always on wifi settings, restart, deleting the game data and restart the download... nothing works.

    I have a Belkin (F5D8236-4, v3) wireless router and it has the latest firmware installed. I use WPA/WPA2-PSK security on the router. I tried setting the router 802.11 g only and that did not help either.

    So is my defective Xoom or is it a problem inherent to the Xoom in general?

    Thank you

    You can also try setting your IP address static as opposed always dynamic (default) and see what helps.

  • After debugging problem impossible to download all the games online in my office.

    I can't open a new online games installed in my office that this problem starts when debugging appeared in my office. It is said like this:

    I have set the debugging by just going to tools, options, internet + advance + turn off debugging. Am I wrong?

    but there is always one:

    ERROR:
    WRUPDATER: Access denied p1_0_55_sub2.zip.

    my pc have the problem or the game...? all online games, I tried to download does not work.

    Hi khirenmaya,
     
    Have you downloaded the games from a particular Web site?
    Have you tried downloading from another source and see if that helps?
    What games did not run after installation?
     
    In the meantime, you can perform the following steps to determine where the problem lies.
     
    Step 1: Try to disable antivirus, firewall and other security software installed on the computer and check if you are able to play these games. If you can not then make sure allow all those who you have disabled.

    Step 2:

    Uninstall and reinstall the game.

    Check if the problem persists.
