Hey Guys, so I have a build and I would like ye to rate it and if needs be, change the components so it will work fine. At the moment my budget is 750 Euros. I have a monitor, keyboard, speakers and mouse. I intend to be playing games such as Battlefield 3 and Modern Warfare 3, and a few old game like Call of Duty 2 and 4. I also would like it to be FutureProof too.

Looks alright to me. Just one word of advice though. When I playing Battlefield 3 Beta, the process on 64 player maps took over 3GB of memory. I have 8GB so I'm fine but on 4GB RAM you might be tight for space as about 25% of that would be taken up for the OS and some other programs. The result is that the draw distance ends up a tad short than what it should be.

I personally would have went for at least 6GB RAM as they're currently very cheap to pick up. Other than that its a good build.
