    Im using a 22" 2ms monitor along with this. My setup cost me about 1.8k and plays WoW with 350+ fps (Without Vsync ofc) I really wanted to experiment with the 990x processor but it's not something I can afford right now >_<. However the keybored is nice and I macro'd 10m tank healing/wild growth to a 1 button push. I hit my T1 button and makesure im not standing in fire. Raids consist of me /asking as I auto heal ;D Jokes aside, I cant get the friggen keybored to work properly. It works fine, but this whole setup is 3 days old and im still getting used to it.

    I'm sure. WoW's full ultra a couple years ago sure, but WoW now uses DX11, along with allowing you to look even farther, so unless you're playing at a very tiny resolution I find it hard to believe you're playing on full ultra without making your computer cry.

    I have a 3 year old Compaq that I got for $350ish. After maxing out the 32bit Vista 3gig ram, I replaced the gpu with a Nvidia gtx 260 and a beefier psu, I can run WoW on ultra (minus shadows) at about 25-30 fps...while standing still in raid during a 10 minute break lol. Actual combat is netting about 10 fps>.<
    Good thing my new setup should be here in about 2 weeks. Can't wait to actually be able to see stuff as its happening!
    I will post specs when I'm not at work and pics obviously when it all arives and I put it together.

    Have you tried flipping the H70 Rad so that the pipes are on the bottom? I hear you get lower noise level coming from the Rad when you flip em. I have my H50 flipped, and its quiet. My H70 is going in once I'm not lazy enough to mess with it.

    24'' LED 1920x1080 Resolution.
    Logitech G15 Keyboard
    Siberia V2 Headset
    Logitech MX518 Mouse
    1 x External Hard drive 500GB USB 2.0
    Altec Lansing 4.1 sound system - thats all i know about that.

    Windows XP version 2002 service pack 2.
    2GB DDR2 - Unknown MHZ
    Intel Core 2 CPU 6600 2.4 GHZ
    Unknown MOBO
    OCZ ModXstream pro 500W PSU - Bought this to power the GTX 470.
    GTX 470 GPU - Won this in a SC2 tournament.
    2 x 500GB 7200RPM Hard Drive.

    Got this 5 years ago on a 55% discount trough my dads job. Back then it was pretty sweet (for the price) with a 400W PSU and a Nvidia 7650GT.

    Oh and btw, i run Crysis 2.

    Placed an order for a new one just this day costing 8163 NOK (1512USD) without a new GPU.

    Good deal, but still sad you got stuck with 2gb DDR2 with a GTX470 running at 1080p >_>
    I hope that 500w PSU is a quality one because GTX470 = infamous Fermi chip (i.e. power whore).

    Well i was suprised myself that the GTX470 worked with the 500W.

    I had to take the 470 out once for a reason i cant really remember, think i lend it to someone or something. So i went to get a 9800GT Green (14 days return no question asked right in Norway so i can do that.) but that didnt work. I was even getting the green edition because it clearly stated that it used less power.

    And im still stuck with the DDR2 and the crappy CPU for a few more days

    Edit: OCZ Vertex 2 FTW, getting a 60GB.

    I haven't noticed any noise from the H70 aside from the fans. The pump is silent as far as I can hear.
