    Need help on building a new computer!

    Hello, well i think it is time to upgrade my PC right now i am using.

    Processor: AMD Phenom II X6 1075T Processor 6core, ~3.0GHz
    Ram: 8gigs ddr3 i forgot the brand
    Gpu: NVIDIA GeForce GTX 560
    AND WINDOWS vista /puke!
    Also i have a 750w power supply.

    (Would it be best to just upgrade my GPU and get a new hard drive and OS? I do not have a SSD either.)

    My computer was nice back in the day but i feel its getting dated so it is time to build something new!

    Budget - Close to 1000USD, less would be better!
    Games / Settings Desired - ESO AvA and WoW Raiding for the next xpac with decent FPS on highish settings!
    Country - USA
    Do you need an OS? - LOL yes please !
    Do you need peripherals - No.

    If you can buy the 280x, its 50 more if you reuse your PSU. (or even RAM)
