I usually play WoW on my laptop and have gotten weary of my fps problems, particularly since MoP so decided to invest in a desktop. I'm a console gamer and don't really know anything about PC specs although I gather these are someway better than a 4 year old laptop. It's a cheap range gaming quality PC for about 700 euro so please bear that in mind. I'd hope for it to be able to run the current generation of games on the highest setting and have some sort of lifespan on it so any tips appreciated.
I'm using Dell, not building from scartch. The current parts are:
Processor: Intel® Core™ i3-2120 Processor (3.30GHz, 3MB L3 Cache, 2C)
Graphics Card: 1GB GDDR5 NVIDIA® GeForce® GT 640
RAM: 6GB 1333MHz 1x4GB + 1x2GB) Dual Channel Memory
It's also an option between Windows 8 and 7, any advice on that? I'm upgrading from XP so either are probably going to annoy me somewhat. Thinking the newer version is the better one unless there's something vista-esque inherently wrong with it.
Any comments however small appreciated, thanks.
