Hehe, I didn't realise this was a sub-forum in off-topics, so I posted this originally in sc2 forum :S sorry for any inconvenience moderators 
But anyway:
I'm making a new pc and want it to run sc2. This is the first time I've tried making a new pc and although I will have help assembling it I am not 100% sure that my chosen parts will be capable of running sc2.
I know this is a wc3 forum (not a pc building site) and all but I don't belong to any other forums and am sure there will be one or two expierienced rig makers on this site.
Any help is really appreciated!
Here is the build:
Intel Core i5 750 2.66GHz Socket LGA1156 8MB L3 Cache Retail Boxed Processor 172755 192
ASUS P7P55D iP55 Socket LGA 1156 8 channel audio ATX Motherboard 173451 20
Corsair 4GB (2x2GB) DDR3 1600MHz/PC3-12800 XMS3 i5 Memory Kit CL9
Corsair 650W TX Series PSU - 120mm Fan, 80+% Efficiency, Single +12V Rail 135514
Pioneer BDC-202 Blu-Ray Reader 12X DVD±RWDL/RAM SATA Black - OEM 130747
Samsung HD103SJ Spinpoint F3 1TB Hard Drive SATAII 7200rpm 32MB Cache - OEM 173804 1027
XFX HD 4870 512MB GDDR5 Dual DVI HDTV Out PCI-E Graphics Card 169206 58
Startech DVI To VGA Adapter F/M 141106 11
Microsoft Windows 7 Home Premium - Licence and media - 1 PC - OEM - DVD - 64-bit - English 173791 114
Xilence Red Wing 120mm Quiet Fan - 3&4pin connection 138586 165
Enermax Magma 80mm Fan with Batwing blades 150437 21
So simply is this all I need (+ a case ofc) and will it run sc2 on max settings?
Any advice, comments are gratefully received
And just incase anyone was wondering it totals up to about £850? Maybe slightly less... including the case: A JEANTECH UNICORN, which I already have.
Thanks in advance
