I'm completely new to building computers (and kind of computers in general) but I am thinking of getting a new computer and i was recommended to build a computer. I am a casual gamer who has played games like: WoW, SWTOR, League and the new releases of wildstar are quickly grabbing my attention! and FPS has always been an issue and discouraged me from playing. I also am a musician and would love to be able to store all my music, as well as be able to record music with this new computer.
In General, THIS is what I am looking for:
A computer that can run games like WoW, SWTOR, LoL, and Wildstar at high settings
A computer that can also hold quite a bit of music/can still do school work on
I dont mind spending ~800, but I do also need an OS
I have been messing around with builds (again i'm new to this) but this is what I have come up with so far:
CPU: 4th Gen Intel® Core™ i5-4670K 3.4GHz LGA 1150 Processor
MoBo: Z87 Extreme4 Socket LGA 1150 Z87 ATX Intel Motherboard
GPU: EVGA GeForce GTX 660 2GB Video Card
Ram: G.Skill Sniper Series 8GB (2 x 4GB) DDR3-2133 Memory
PSU: CoolMax 700W 80 PLUS Certified ATX12V / EPS12V Power Supply
Case: Raidmax Tornado (Black/Red) ATX Mid Tower Case
I also looked on Ibuypower, and I think I could get something comparable for a little more, but with the shipping it would put it over 1000, which I'm not really looking to do (I am a college student :P)
I thought I'd try to get as many opinions on this as possible before I made any decisions. Feel free to mess around with the current build I have, or create a brand new build I'm open to all ideas!
