I have read through several posts on here, as well as numerous other threads and have now just become entirely overwhelmed.
I have always built AMD systems (more cost friendly), and I am getting ready to refresh my old system (it's about 5 yrs old now), but after reading numerous posts, and looking at benchmarks, the i5-3570K is a better processor for playing WoW, as well as being a very good for just general everyday 'stuff', I have decided to make the switch to Intel.
In looking at parts, and reading various posts, I'm just stuck on what MB to pair with the CPU. For some reason, I'm finding it more of a challenge than if I were just to stick to with AMD. Any thoughts or recommendations?
The only game I play on my PC is WoW. I will upgrade my 9800 gtx+ to most likely a 650Ti, so I would hope this new set up will allow me to have at least most of the settings set to good or high without bogging down and killing my FPS (especially during raids). Thanks in advance.
