Currently using:
MacBook Pro (15-inch, Mid 2009)

NVIDIA GeForce 9400M 256 MB
NVIDIA GeForce 9600M GT 512 MB
And I believe it is time for an upgrade... I want to custom build a gaming PC relatively cheap for the first time. I usually play WoW on Low settings 1440x900 with the old models and the scaling is set at 90% at 30 FPS. While the game is playable, I would actually like to experience a better view. While I have never built a PC before is the budget below obtainable for the high-end settings of WoW? I would love the professional feedback of the forum members and am definitely open to all options.
-- Budget: $400-$500
-- Resolution: --
-- Games / Settings Desired: World of Warcraft / Diablo 3 / Starcraft 2 / Hearthstone / Heroes of the Storm -- (High 60 FPS)
-- Any other intensive software or special things you do (Frequent video encoding, 3D modeling, etc): --
-- Country: USA
-- Parts that can be reused: --
-- Budget: Separate
-- Do you need an OS? Windows 10
-- Do you need peripherals (e.g. monitor, mouse, keyboard, speakers, etc)? Monitor, Keyboard & Speakers
Thanks!
