    I am looking into buying a pc and I want to get a machine that runs MTWII well. Does and one have any advice on how much I can expect to spend, and what type of specs I should be looking to get.

    I am not loaded....am on a budget...oh and i am in the UK so bear that in mind.

    Thanks in advance for your advice guys.

    Well my processor, mobo, RAM, case with power supply and videocard, plus case cost $948 from newegg.com. Tell us where you live and what components you already have. This post will also be moved to a tech forum where I usually stay and post. So look for its new location soon.

    I'd say you'll want to spend anywhere from $800 to $1000 USD.

    Or,

    430 GBP to 540 GBP.

    I'm planning a major upgrade - at least new GPU but possibly new CPU and mobo as well - just for MTW2. Already got a new monitor and HDD for MTW2.

    Well, some us have really old PC's that struggled to play RTW, so there is no way in hell that we will play MTW2. And some us are PC geeks that got £700 for thier birthday.
