Hey guys, I'm looking to either build or buy a pre built pc. I will mostly be playing WoW, Overwatch and Tera. I want to be able to play these games at high/max settings. I would like to keep my budget under $1000 but if I can get a nice build for a little more I wouldn't mind $1200 or so. I want something that will last me awhile and still perform well. I've linked a page of a pc I was interested in and was wondering if it would be able to give me what I'm looking for. If not can anyone recommend any pre built or mock build something within my budget. I greatly appreciate any help! Thanks! https://www.digitalstorm.com/configurator.asp?id=1742585

Here you go. This one has a way more powerful video card, twice the RAM faster, and an SSD to make the PC super fast boots.
PCPartPicker part list / Price breakdown by merchant

CPU: AMD - Ryzen 5 1600 3.2GHz 6-Core Processor ($196.88 @ OutletPC)
Motherboard: ASRock - AB350 Pro4 ATX AM4 Motherboard ($73.98 @ Newegg)
Memory: G.Skill - Ripjaws V Series 16GB (1 x 16GB) DDR4-3200 Memory ($129.99 @ Newegg)
Storage: Samsung - 960 EVO 250GB M.2-2280 Solid State Drive ($117.60 @ Amazon)
Storage: Western Digital - Caviar Blue 1TB 3.5" 7200RPM Internal Hard Drive ($45.87 @ OutletPC)
Video Card: EVGA - GeForce GTX 1060 6GB 6GB SC GAMING...
That is a horrible deal to only get a 1050 Ti and Ryzen 1600 for $1000.

Definitely build it yourself. You could easily afford a 1060 6GB on a self build, and I would personally also wait to see what the Intel Coffee Lake CPUs will be priced at.

The 1070s are coming back down close to $400 now, and were as low as $380 before bit mining drove the prices up. Bottom line, a $1000 to $1200 budget warrants a 1070.

Even a 1060 is a bit of a disappointment on that budget level, but a 1050, no way.
