Exactly the same answer my guild mates offered. But, I need to have some idea what to look out for. I believe there will be some things that I might be able to purchase ahead of time because I have the $$ and see good buys, but want to make sure everything is compatible.

I do know that I want to make sure my new pc can handle mmo games since I play GW2 and Rift at the moment.
