Make sure to check your installed programs for nVidia's PhysX. ATI cards current doesn't support it which means your cpu will take a very steep hit if you use it.

Me. I'm not sure how PhysX got into my pc. But, it was slowing down some games. So, I uninstalled it.

Mobo: MSI 790-GX-G65 (AM3 and DDR3 compatible)
RAM: 2X 2GB DDR3 1333 Kingston (I figured at this stage 4GB is sufficient I have 2 slots left anyway, will buy as required)
HDD: 1TB Samsung 7200RPM SATA 32MB cache
GPU: ATI Radeon HD 4670 1GB (I know kinda low spec but its so hard to find HD 5000 series here)

I'd suggest that you go with a Gigabyte instead of an MSI. Make sure all capacitors are solid type. Also, Western Digital instead of a Samsung.

Ang problem lang dito sa Gigabyte is ang hirap maghanap ng specs na gusto ko. Meron sa mga price list nila pero laging wala silang hawak special order pa... Yung hinahanap ko kasi AM3 socket na and DDR3 compatible na...

oks. pero sir, question... Pano malalaman kung solid type yung capacitors ng Gigabyte na mobo?

I think all motherboards switched to Japanese solid-state capacitors after 2006.
