Hi, all. I'm looking to build a new computer.
Budget $830
Resolution 1680x1050
Games / Settings Desired WoW: Mist of Pandaira, Diablo 3, Guild Wars 2, Starcraft 2 - Ultra or max settings.
Any other intensive software or special things you do (Frequent video encoding, 3D modeling, etc) Just edit videos for my guild boss kills.
Country United States
Parts that can be reused Optical Drive, Hard drive (can I reuse the operating system on it?)
Do you need an OS? depending on the question above
Do you need peripherals (e.g. monitor, mouse, keyboard, speakers, etc)? Could use a new keyboard, but I'll live if you can get better parts.
Here is my current computer, I'm not sure if it would be better just to upgrade, by it's a pretty getto computer, and I have to use a deskfan on it with the case open :x. So I want a computer with good cooling so I don't have to use a desk fan :x
