Do you guys think I can get a decent gaming computer with i7 (or other quad core) with 8gb and a decent graphics card. So overall I could play Crysis 2 on medium with decent fps or Arma 2 on high. I live in Australia by the way. Also motherboards I rarely see mentioned, do they not matter as much for a gaming machine? You don't need an i7 for gaming. I have an i5 with a Radeon HD 7950 and I can max out games just fine.
For motherboards, I'd suggest don't go for extremely cheap ones from obscure brands. Get a motherboard from ASUS, Gigabyte, ASRock or MSI.
Do you have a budget? I could prepare a build for you.

I'm fine with a single monitor.That's what everybody thinks until they get another ;D I wish I have the money and space for another one.
Wow, good advice, thank you.
I dont want to be spending anymore than $1,200.
I work in a small computer shop at the moment, and we build computers. The issue is I don't know what is the best for my cash, the good thing is though i can get a discount on what is best.
Having to use i5 and 3.8gb usable RAM with a radeon 5650 just is not enough for arma 2. I wont be able to play the upcoming arma 3, because the new engine's minimum system requirements is pretty much what I've got currently.
