    Help me build a computer! please D:

    Alright, so Currently im playing on a 2 year old Toshiba satellite laptop, and its just not cutting it.
    My budget is 900$(ish)
    As for function, I would love to be able to play WoW on ultra, while fraps'ing/streaming with little frame loss.
    Also, decent HDMI out would be great.
    I do not need a monitor/keyboard/mouse.

    any help would be amazing!

    Links don't work for me because of insuffisient posts, but if you goto the 'Sticky Index' there are 'Sweetspot Builds'

    The above builds plus a second hard drive dedicated to recording will work well. Recording onto the same drive you run Windows/WoW from will result in stutters.

    Streaming, well, that depends on your internet connection more than anything I think.
    Super casual.

    If the radiance of a thousand suns were to burst at once into the sky, that would be like the splendor of the Mighty One... now I am become Death, the Destroyer of Worlds.
