650$ build halp

[Annthrax]

Hey guys I am looking to build a computer for 650$ I will need an OS and I would like to play wow 25 or 40m raids, at high graphics, I want it to be smooth and flawless if possible, also play D3 on the side, I cant go higher than 650$ what do you think/.?

It'll be a tough push with those needs. You can play high, but 25m will be tough. I dont think 40m are a problem simply because... you can't really get 40 people together any more for super old content. This is slightly over your budget, but I think it's as good as you can get for that price. If you can't swing the extra $50, then drop the video card down to an MSI 7770.

If you look at chazus the only thing you can really change is the CPU and go to a I3-2100 or go the amd route and get a amd cpu and mobo.which will bring you down to your price range.

Hmm thank you for the idea's I shall see what I can do and what graphics card would you recommend, Because I might be able to get one pretty cheap even though newegg is pretty cheap.
