Okay, my name's not Petunia, but I'm finally considering looking into the market for a REAL computer in the near future and I know MMO-Champion has some of the best advice.
I understand that building my own will certainly be cheaper but I'm not experienced and I don't think I have any super techie friends that are into it. I'd rather avoid the unpleasantness of having to weed out what's working and what's not.
ABOUT ME:
I play WoW and I'm looking into making videos. I dabble in video editing and take graphic design pretty seriously. I would like to be able to play current-gen games as well, though those don't have to be at ridiculously high settings (SUPERULTRAMAXHIGHAWESOME 100).
I'm looking to spend $750 AT MOST (monitor and peripherals not included). You're also welcome to try to convince me to consider building a rig, if you believe I'm actually capable of such a task.
Budget - $750
Resolution - 1920x1080
Games / Settings Desired - WoW on Ultra
Any other intensive software or special things you do (Frequent video encoding, 3D modeling, etc) - Video editing, graphic design
Country - US
Parts that can be reused
Do you need an OS? - No
Do you need peripherals (e.g. monitor, mouse, keyboard, speakers, etc)? - No
