My First Build!

Indeed. As long as you get a decent MoBo, you can upgrade later on. Two goals, shoot for one, future proof it by going for the bells and whistles now or, keep it open to upgrades by purchasing a solid motherboard that offers plenty of expansion space and a reliable power supply that can handle additions later.

Bah! MOAR multisampling! And holy crap, I just noticed in your siggy you have an i7 extreme 990X. O_O At 5.21 GHZ?!

Wow. Oh and yay me 1,000 posts. How is playing WoW with such a ridiculous processor clock? XD

Enough to run with Ultra Shadows and Ultra everything at 80+ FPS (much to many OMG ULTRA SHADOWS RAPES EVEN THE BEST COMPUTERS's people's chagrin)

You need less MS as you go up in res generally.

My friend set WoW to 32X SLI MS just for kicks though.

Tech Newb. Have close to no idea about hardware. My friend helped me with this, but I've learnt quite a lot just from doing this.

There, my first build. Tell me what you think. Also, just to make sure; on what setting on RIFT would this be able to run on comfortably? And don't worry Rift-haters, I won't even acknowledge your senseless ranting of a game you either haven't played or only played until level 5.

Hey mate im from manchester aria is just around the corner from me

I would suggest you go into aria or ring them up and ask them for a prebuilt machine and tell them your budget

im sure you can get a machine that will play latest games full res and 30+ fps

why risk building a new pc if you have no idea or some idea of what you need to do mate don't risk it if you have money to burn though on a risk then go ahead

there is alot of things that could go wrong

you could wreck some hardware because you didn't do something right

just ring them and say "Hey mate im looking to build a gaming pc for this price can you help me?" and they will help you give them your number and communicate with them

if you wanna talk to me or anything or need any1 to go to aria with you just send me a mail on this mmo site and i will go in aria with you i wanna go there aswelll soon

Or he could just get the same rig 20% cheaper by building it himself. Nothing will go wrong as long as he follows manual and keeps his head cool and dont spill beer on the components. There's virtually no risk involved as long as you've done the research beforehand and know wtf to do on basic level (as in ground yourself by touching the case etc.).

... or he could just buy some shitty prebuilt machine that will blow up in 2 years due to cheapest possible parts to get max profit, and propably can't even be properly upgraded.
