I need a new computer for Warhammer Online, originally I was just going to buy one but I looked into buying parts and building a computer myself and it seems cheaper with better parts.
I picked out some parts off of newegg.com that I think work together, though I'm not 100% sure they all work together.
I want to be able to upgrade my computer in the future. I'd like to be able to add more memory, or a new video card to keep my computer up to date. Is this mother board good for future upgrades? These items come in at a total of close to $1,000 though I am willing to spend somewhere around $1,500 if it will benefit me in the long run.
Any help on these parts would be appreciated, I'd really like to know if any of the parts aren't quite adequate. Thanks.
Looks good, only main thing id change is the 9800GTX to a 4870 or Nvidia 9800GX2 (price drops make it very competitive now and it generally does better than a GTX 280)

+1 on the Mushkin RAM. It runs at its advertised timings at the JEDEC standard 1.8v.
I haven't decided if I will try Warhammer Online because I don't know what their subscription fee will be. If it is more than for a good monthly magazine (e.g. $6-$7), I will probably pass on it, otherwise I would think that my 3850 should be fine for it. I'd love to have a reason to buy a 4850, but this title isn't it. I would still agree with dirtmountain that the 4850 is the card to get though, for the performance/price and a little more future-resistance.
