Budget setup for wow

GPU ?

WOW recommended

NVIDIA GeForce 8800 GT,
ATI™ Radeon HD 4830 (512 MB) or better

You could get away with a smaller PSU I'd go corsair 350w or, IMHO an Ultra I got a 500w one before I started building for REAL really cheap and it was super quiet had no issues with it for the 2 yrs I owned it. I don't get the whole "Make my case look awesome" stuff I'd much rather get a cheap $50 tower than something Im never going to be looking at. You could also try looking at towers that come with a PSU those are usually pretty good deals. If your only playing WoW I would also go for a smaller HDD. But it looks pretty solid to me Here's what I would choose if I was in your shoes just reference-wise.

CPU - AMD FX-4300 3.8GHz Socket AM3+ 8MB Cache Retail Boxed Processor
RAM - Corsair Vengeance 4GB DDR3 1600Mhz Memory Module CL9 1.5v
Case&PSU RAIDMAX Altas ATX-295WBP Black Steel / Plastic ATX Mid Tower Computer Case 500W Power Supply $60.00

$55.00

Thats about $250.00 together if you wanted a GPU here's what I would suggest

GIGABYTE GV-R777OC-2GI Radeon HD 7770 GHz Edition 2GB 128-bit GDDR5 PCI Express 3.0 HDCP Ready Video Card
$120.00
http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16814125474
OR
PowerColor Go! Green AX6570 1GBK3-HEV2 Radeon HD 6570 1GB 128-bit DDR3 PCI Express 2.1 x16 HDCP Ready CrossFireX Support Video Card
$50.00

This was the closest I could find to the 6770 radeon series without looking too hard. But its cheap Its within the AMD family so it should get along with everything considering the AMD chipset in the mobo. Not like there's much to worry about I just think its weird to go AMD and get a Nvidia GPU is all. If you go Nvidia go 650Ti good solid card I have a 770 lovin' it.

Personally I'd go with this hard drive I have a barracuda on stand-by since I switched to SSD and it served me well for the last 5 yrs.

Looks like about $300.00 not including any rebates you might get.Oh and the ram you have no compatible problems. Also be sure to spend like $8.00 on some thermal paste for your CPU AMD processors tend to run HOT especially if your OCing. Other than that you don't need any cooling stuff you'll run in the "safe temp. range". Anyways hope this post was at least a learning experience.

If your from UK you can check cex they sell pretty good GPUs very cheap here is there website http://uk.webuy.com/

Look at this GTX

http://uk.webuy.com/product.php?sku=SGRAGEF8800GTX1GB

Go for an AMD Athlon x4-750k Its $90 bucks quad core, if you wanna go cheaper and its truely just for WoW you could get away with a dual core CPU I have a friend in England gaming it up with a dual core and a 7779 GPU he averages 30fps on battlefield multiplayer which is mehhh but WoW shouldn't have any issue with a dual core.
AMD A6-6400B best price for power.
yes compatability-wise your good.

http://uk.webuy.com/product.php?sku=SCUPAMDFX4130 $55.00-is a damn good deal for this CPU
http://uk.webuy.com/product.php?sku=SSSDCOIFOR3A $70.00-120 GB SSD you don't NEED a bunch of drive space if your playing WoW and not dling alot of stuff. This you could easily have your OS and about... 70GB Im underestimating but there is some space reserved. Which is more than enough to install WoW and your character(s). SSD's are friggin' amazing I promise.

Im thinking this dude is gone, anyways AMD processors suck a 2-core intel blows away their quads all around dont go for the gimmick get an i3 if you want best value and they are pretty cheap compaired to the i5-i7 which AMD cannot compete with at ALL. Anyways any other questions just ask.

Hey I hope I helped some of these guys helped me out, There are integrated graphics in the CPU's but they tend to well suck no Ultra High settings but if you arent picky about the look then you could skip the gpu. Its funny cause the things that are most important aren't the "sexy" purhcases like the PSU and stuff. The shiny thing I can relate when I started always caught my attention-ADD issues Anyways lookin' forward to seeing what you go with Im not an AMD hater, I'm always checking out and up on their stuff but I seem to never get the satisfaction of their products that their specs say they have. Like Im checking out the 280 on youtube right now.

It was funny when I clicked on the link and saw the card I was scratching my head like huh?!? really that thing? Then I talked to a friend of mine and he's been rockin' a 6800 and plays sky-rim no mods and diablo 3 with it on high settings. So I must say that my friend is a good pick.

Thanks so much i hop it dose the work for ya

Im gonna answer the SSD question now and check out the other stuff in a second or a little later, Yes the SSD is WAY faster than a regular HDD.Think about it like this the HDD is a record and the needle for the record player is what reads the disk, right? Well with an SSD you have no needle to read off of the disk, Its not a mechanical read/write like an HDD it doesnt have to literally move around to find/read/ or write the data its always at the ready. I have my OS only on a SSD it literally takes me 4-6 seconds to reboot with no lag/stupid waiting icon. With a brand new 7200 seagate barracuda HDD it was about 15-25 seconds to boot. So if you are running any application or game off an SSD it will run smoother and have lesser or no lag time AT ALL. You probably wont believe me unless you use one. But once you do you will wonder why you didnt get one sooner. sit down and use one of your friends PC's from power off, then try yours with the SSD you'll start to recognize the difference.

That motherboard is the wrong one,it is an amd /socket am3(+) motherboard,you should find one with a socket 1155.

You must be on a really tight budget to look for an old gpu like that,but it's up to you.

mobo isnt compatible with cpu, if you want to look towards the future so to speak here's probably a better way to go.

http://uk.webuy.com/product.php?sku=SCPUINTI53470A 105.00(damn good cpu 3rd gen. Ivy Bridge great performance for price, Its up there in best gaming cpu's)

http://uk.webuy.com/product.php?sku=SSSDOCZVEC128G 85.00(fastest SSD overrall for its storage size)

http://www.ebuyer.com/278634-corsair-500w-cx-v2-psu-cmpsu-500cxv2uk 43.00 (500w which would be plenty for a GPU upgrade, this is probably as cheap as I'd go for a PSU Corsair is a badass company this one is going to last longer than any of those others especially in this price range. Its funny I saw a PSU that didnt even have a brand it was just called "black", lol)

http://www.ebuyer.com/429725-asrock-h61m-dgs-socket-1155-vga-dvi-5-1-channel-audio-matx-motherboard-h61m-dgs 34.00(chose this because well its compatible with the i5 I linked here also good for the i3 as well, but it also has a pciEx16 3.0 slot for your GPU unlike some of the others I saw for this price)

That memory is great its what Im using until I do my next build in about 3 months and put the corsair platinum series in it.
People seem to like the G.skill set as well they get great reviews and they usually get a lot of reviews so it has to be good mem.

Ok so matching what you have I kinda tweaked it a little bit concerning the future upgrading thing and the compatibility issue with the cpu. So if you go for the i3 you would definately need to upgrade your cpu when your ready to start doing your upgrades. If you go with this i5 its probably gonna be the last thing you would need to upgrade besides the PSU. IMHO PC importance goes CPU-PSU-RAM-Storage-MoBo-other(s)-tower. If you go AMD cpu its going to run a lot hotter and need a lot more juice from the power supply. Thats why I was kinda nugging you to intel other than they are ultimately better anyways. That GPU would be able to handle WoW on high if not the highest settings. Here's another option just for $#I%$ and giggles.

http://uk.webuy.com/product.php?sku=SGRAATI5830001 This was the only AMD card that was worth a damn against the 8800 its a little more expensive but it does truely outperform the 8800 its also dx11 capable the 8800 Im not so sure it says dx10 which might mean out of the factory ready for 10 driver update made it ready for 11 I dunno. Oh and this one has ddr5 mem which is actually faster if you will then ddr3 it has double the bandwidth allowing larger units of data to be pushed in and out of the gpu. basically ddr3 lower latency, lower voltage. ddr5 higher voltage bigger chunks of information gets through.

Oh heres a case you might be interested in!!!

Cheers and Ill probably be back on around 3:00ish got some DmC and Civ. 5 to play

For a case the next one is a nice one too,

no that sounds like a really solid build, in the future reasonable upgrading is RAM, storage space, and GPU when/if your ready. Like I said that i5 is a beast It was on the top 15 Intel cpu's for gaming and no AMD was even on that tier I got that information right here on Tom's I forgot where I saw that link I kinda ran into it. Yeah the mobo specified 3rd Gen sandy bridge cpu's It had the best slots PCIx16 and usb 3.0 while the others where lacking also I dont know about your home theatre set-up if you have one but I figured making sure it could process 5.1 at least was a good idea. Its a miniATX board(just means its a small mobo) so it should be easier to install everything not a lot of extra plugs or anything to mess up. Looks like you probably stayed in the 350 range maybe cheaper which is awesome especially considering its not a throw away after a couple years!!! Yeah Im kinda glad you didnt get the pink one that ones gonna be mine wouldn't want to feel like a copy-cat. I always kicked my buddies collective butts at Halo I made my Master Chief Pink to let them know for sure it was me powning them. So other than the moist kind I fell in love with the color pink I actually live in Tx. I think it will be about 5 days though my friend who lives in UK bought a GPU and it seemed like he got it in about a week. Not sure on how much importance you put on or what your set-up is so when I was looking at key,mouse I went wired they are supposed to be "faster" I don't put a lot of emphasis on that so I am wireless just made sure they had strong signal strength so as to not drop connectivity. I'm glad to hear you bought and you picked very solid components. I'm pretty sure you did some research on your own cause besides the mobo cpu hiccup you did a good job at picking good stuff. Anyways if you have any questions, just wanted to say hi, or need some help you got my screen-name. I'd like to hear how you like your rig when you get it set-up at least. Cheers my friend have a nice time hunting boar(South Park reference).
