With all the sell-side competition, prices are going to be extremely low (like, a couple dollars at most for top-tier items).
Even gamers on a Wal-Mart income will be tempted... especially when they weigh the cost of the item against how much time it would take to find it themselves, compared to their job's hourly pay.

Aug 2, 2011Kardax2 posted a message on Runic Revision?Binding runes to specific skills goes a very long way toward offsetting the removal of skill points. It brings back the concept of a major investment into a specific skill you like.Posted in: News
Over time, without some kind of reset event, the game's economy will be saturated with top-tier runes, but this should work for a while.

The 550 Ti is fine, but if you can afford to step up to a 560 (about $50 more, the speed is a lot better: http://www.anandtech...duct/541?vs=543

* ...at 1080p60. Higher-resolution or faster screens could push these cards a bit.

Basically, two 680s in the physical space of one. Also costs as much as two 680s ($1000). Very classy looking design, but probably too loud for my tastes
It appears that people hoping for the 670/660 will have to keep waiting...

Ideally, you'd get a laptop with a 1920x1080 screen, but then it'll need a GPU that's twice as powerful (and needs twice the cooling), so the whole laptop will need to get bigger, and the weight starts to stretch the definition of "laptop"...
Desktop PCs don't have all these compromises, but if you need a laptop you just have to be aware that it won't be perfect

They are nice, and make great OS drives, but in general I'd consider them a luxury item with little value for gaming. Especially the 60 GB one you're looking at. It'll get very cramped, especially when you factor in future D3 expansion packs and the many programs that insist on being on your C-drive.
* Assuming you have enough RAM and CPU performance, of course.

I can't guarantee a no-lag or hardly-any-lag experience with an Althon X2. A big battle might be more than it could handle, so you'll have to be careful in those situations. It should still be playable.

That GPU should be able to max out most games settings, but it still might be sluggish during large battles becauuse your CPU can't keep it all straight. You may be in a weird situation where the graphics-intensive options (resolution, anti-aliasing, textures, fx, shadows) can be high, but CPU intensive options (physics, sound mixing) have to be low.

Most systems are GPU-limited, so lowering the resolution will help. Upgrading the GPU (or, in the case of an integrated graphics setup like yours, adding a discrete GPU) will improve performance and allow you to raise the quality levels.

I recommend a Radeon 7750. It's slot-powered (meaining 75 watts max), so your PSU should be able to handle it, and it's new enough that should you build yourself a new computer, you can re-use this card. They sell for $110-$120, currently. At your monitor's 1280x1024 resolution, it can probably max out all the game's details.

Blizzard wants everyone to be able to play, so you're not going to need a monster card for this game. Any modern $150-or-more GPU should be able to play the game with all the quality levels at "high" with a 1080p screen.
