I have a pretty common question that I see a lot on this forum. I just got back from deployment and have saved up a little bit of cash to build my own PC for gaming. I don't play anything too graphic intense, just World of Warcraft and DOTA 2. I am looking for the best available hardware to play those two specific games on max settings. As of right now, I have a Cooler Master Elite for my case and a OCZ 600W PSU. If you have any ideas on best combination of hardware, please let me know. I don't plan on upgrading or playing any other games anytime soon.
Best Gaming Computer Build for roughly $800-900?

I cannot view your build so I suggest you post the BBCode Markup (found near the top right corner) in here. However, here is a PC which I own and goes a little underbudget when you take away the PSU and the case but will play pretty much any game on ultra. Haven't tested it against Crysis yet but it plays the Battlefield 4 Beta on ultra at a great frame rate. Honestly you don't need even this much power to play MMOs
