    Can i get some help with this build

    im planning on making this build (pcpartpicker .com/blog/45/970-gaming-build) (except with double the ram) i was wondering if there was anything else i should add to it or things i should change, bear in mind i only have a budget of $1000, thanks for any responses

    - case is bit overpriced (Silverstone cases always are really expensive)
    - H100i much better than H80i as a cooler... and you dont need either if not overclocking
    - forget extra RAM and get 250GB SSD instead

    will my current build be able to play WoW WoD with everything on ultra?

    Yes and no.

    Nothing plays 25man raids in WoW with everything on ultra at 60fps on 1080p monitor, but there's also nothing you can buy more to make it better than the stuff you listed besides SSD. SSD wont increase fps but it will shrink loading times significantly.

    Assuming you got a budget around 1k, i would compare it to the following, better ram, 256gb ssd, higher clocked gpu, alot better psu and a good case:
