Since I know pretty much nothing about hardware, I checked the ''setups of the month'' by chaud, here on MMO-CHAMPION, so as to replace my 8 year old computer.
Considering my budget, I decided to go with the ''Dolphin'' setup.
I am considering going with a AMD FX-8320 CPU instead of the FX-6300 though, since the price difference is not large.
My local computer store replied to me that they don't charge for putting the computer together, as long as the componentes are bought there. However, they aren't able to get the motherboard in the build, since they claim it is no longer produced, and they suggested ''MB ASUS Chip AMD 990FX SKAM3+DDR3 ATX - SABERTOOTH 990FX R2'' as na alternative motherboard.
They also said they couldn't get the cooler I asked for, but suggested ''CM COOLER HYPER 212 EVO 2011/1366/1156/1155/7'' as an alternative
And they couldn't get the Power Supply included in the ''Dolphin'' so I'm considering going with the 650W one on the Narwhal.
Could you guys please give me some opinions on these changes?
The computer is mostly directed at playing WoW. With this setup, how much can I expect to be able to overclock this computer (Have never overclocked before, but I would like to be able to play for many hours in a row without risking destroying my computer), and how many FPS can I expect to get?
I am currently playing 10-man on ''Fair'', since on ''Good'' the frame rate doesnt allow for a fluid game experience. Even on ''Fair'', on encounters like Elegon RaidFinder, I can't play as melee at all, since my FPS plummets as low as 5ish FPS.
Thank you very much in advance!
