    Upgrading my 6 yr old comp

    Will be buying a new comp soon for Tera, Phantasy Star Online 2, Neverwinter, TESO and i was wondering if this computer looks good to you all. I'll be upgrading the graphics card of course but it'll be alittle later after i buy it when i got the money for it.

    Besides graphics card it's fine, but be aware that it ships with a motherboard which does not allow overclocking even though the processor is unlocked K model.
    Never going to log into this garbage forum again as long as calling obvious troll obvious troll is the easiest way to get banned.
    Trolling should be.

    Any chance you can build it on your own? That setup isn't bad, however that's a $575 computer for $720, so you're basically paying an extra $150 for having it built. Also, what Vesseblah said. An extra $20 could get you an overclock ability.

    This video helped me learn how to build a PC on my own, the guy in the video explains everything.

    $100 cheaper, a proper motherboard to allow overclocking if you wish, proper 1600 ram (not that it makes much of a difference but still). No video card, you still have to choose that, but you were intending to do that anyway. That hundred can be spent on a nicer video card, an SSD, or simply saved.
