I was thinking of making a cheap build out of it for my girlfriend and maybe get back into WoW with her (We haven't played in 2 years). I was hoping to get recommendations as to what other parts to put together. We are thinking of getting brand new builds in 2-3 years so It doesn't need to be fancy and if possible I'd like to keep it around the $300-$500 range or so, since it will be used mostly to watch movies, play WoW, Half Life 2, Hearthstone, among other lesser games. She currently has a really old HP laptop that is being held together with duck tape and a prayer.
Here is what I have so far:
Intel Core i5 3570K 3.4 GHz
Cooler Master Hyper 212 EVO
Asus P8B75-V ATX Motherboard
G.Skill Ripjaws 16GB (2x8GB) DDR3-1600 CL10
Here's a link (with a space in the middle so it'll let me post): pcpartpicker. com/list/x3MWqk. The parts marked as Purchased are the ones that I got from my friend. I am not looking to replace these parts.
Thank you!!
PS: Somehow I deleted my original post. I apologize. I fixed the link here, tho!
