He can easily overclock that CPU to ~3.4 ghz with an aftermarket air cooler. I have a 3.0 Phenom II running at 3.8 with even more headroom if needed. Besides its not like clockspeed is everything.

And that GPU is plenty for 1440x900 res, which is what most likely his monitor is capable of.

Also...75 fps? really? Is a game unplayable for you if it goes under 75fps?

Also...there is no way in hell one can get all that stuff you listed for 700 bucks. Unless you spend weeks looking for sales, bottom prices and special deals...


Clockspeed is everything for some games.

I assumed that his screen had a 75hz refresh rate, like most modern monitors. I don't know about you, but I don't like screen tearing. That GPU can't even do 60fps for most modern games, so it is not good enough.
