Yep, that's a good one. It should take something of 6770/6850 caliber no problem.

That's expired unfortunately :|

Would this desktop and graphics card work together and run the game fine?

Yup. Or you could get a 6670 here for about the same shipped price with no rebate hassle.

Or pay $10 more for the GDDR5 version

Here ya go, right now on shellshocker: http://www.newegg.com/Special/ShellS...2-_-12292011_1

$289 after $10 MIR. Throw in your 6670 above for $80 after MIR including shipping and a copy of Win 7 OEM for $99 and you have a kick butt system for $468 just a little over your budget and it will perform better than the refurbs you are looking at.

Crap, just looked at the Newegg deal and no CD/DVD, that would add $20 to the deal.

To answer your question. Yes, the computer quoted above would run SWTOR fine.

^ That is a very sweet deal. And you get full warranty on the parts. It will go over budget but not by much, it's definitely worth it given that it's not a refurb, the PSU is more powerful than on OEM PCs and the i3-2100 is going to last a long time before needing an upgrade. If you can't afford the GPU yet, use the integrated graphics for now and save up money, or try to find a used copy of windows. You could probably run SWTOR on just about playable fps on your resolution and low settings with the integrated GPU.

Dead already.

 

[lehtv]

Oh well. He should check this thread more often, the best deals expire in <1 day

 

[DooKey]

Deal is still good. I just added it to my cart. Just have to pick the little picture on the link of the combo.

Sorry, I never replied I did end up finding a good laptop for a decent deal and it runs the game fine.
