    Need Help With New Comp Build

    Hey guys I was just wondering if anyone could give me some suggestions for a new computer. I have no problem building it myself either.
    I'd like to run WoW on all ultra settings with no problems whatsoever.
    My Budget: $750-1250

    Thanks in advance for the help.

    Hey there Drom, if the budget is just for the computer alone I would recommend one of fuzzys builds at the 1k mark. With it being 1k you can leave it alone or if you like you could maybe spend the extra on a SSD or purchase a even nicer video card. This build will blow wow out of the water really and it will run most other games at max settings as well. If you do not have a nice monitor with at least a 1920 1080 resolution, I would suggest taking the extra and buying a nice HD 1080p one (24" or 23"). You can usually get one for less then $250 so you would still be under budget as well. It is nice having the computer system, but if you do not have the screen to see all the beauty of the graphics .... well shame on you!!! hehe Let everyone know if you have any questions at all.

    What kind of SSD should I get in your opinion?

  4. #4
    A 120GB+ one.
    Intel 320-series, Intel 510-series (which are rather meh at randomwrites), Corsair Force F120, Crucial M4, Kingston SSDNow v+, Corsair Force 3, Corsair Force GT.
    Avoid OCZ, and especially Vertex 3, and especially again, the MAX IOPS version.
