I'm buying a new pc just for some light gaming like LoL, Wow, minecraft that kind of stuff
here are the specs of the pc:

CPU AMD Athlon II X4 750K 3.4GHz Quad-Core Processor
Motherboard MSI FM2-A75MA-E35 Micro ATX FM2 Motherboard
Memory Corsair Vengeance 4GB (1 x 4GB) DDR3-1600 Memory
Storage Western Digital Caviar Blue 500GB 3.5" 7200RPM Internal Hard Drive
Video Card XFX Radeon HD 7770 1GB Video Card
Case NZXT Source 210 Elite (Black) ATX Mid Tower Case
Power Supply Corsair Builder 430W 80+ Bronze Certified ATX Power Supply
Optical Drive Lite-On iHAS124-04 DVD/CD Writer

now i have a few questions:
* Is the MSI FM2-A75MA-E35 motherboard compatible with the Corsair Vengeance Blue 4GB (1x4GB) DDR3 1600 MHz ram?
* Is the Corsair Builder 430W 80+ Bronze Certified ATX Power Supply good enough of a psu for this build?
* How is the NZXT Source 210 Elite casing?
* Does the lite-on optical drive ihas12404 work for installing windows?
* Will this pc run games like LoL and WoW on med to high settings with good fps?

All the help is appreciated!

Currently have

AMD FX 8350 4.0GHZ
8GB DDR3 Ram
Dual PNY Nvidia GTX 770 w/SLI Bridge
ASUS M5 A99FX Pro R2 Motherboard
Windows 8 64bit if it matters

Have all driver updates downloaded from manufacturers

I think my motherboard is not the one I need for this or I'm bottlenecking my CPU because when I use 3DMark it's the lowest when it frame tests my CPU portion.

Was thinking that since Bridges are about worthless for World of Warcraft and I just upgraded all of this without knowing (still have the boxes and receipts right next to me) I can at the very least sell all this stuff on EBAY. I'd like to know the setup required to set everything at the highest possible settings and still get really good frame rates. I also heard that the game does not optimize well with multiple cores and anything over 2 is a bit of a waste. Thought of switching to Intel for this reason.

Would VERY MUCH love some advice.

Already did but I play WoW and the frames did better with a single card instead of dual. Sold the GTX 770's anyhow and have a 780TI that I ordered and shipped overnight. For some reason overnight with fedex actually means 6 days and I have to physically pick it up locally if I want it. Going to get it Monday.

Why are you trying to hijack the thread? Why don't you just make a new one.....
