Looking to Build a decent rig to play wow.. Please help

Hey guys, First off great Board you have here.. I've been reading on here for a couple weeks... Ok I'm just a carpenter lol I'm such a noob when it comes down to computer building.. But I have the faith I can do it with the help from this board.. I'm looking to spend about 900-1000 bucks for everything including a Monitor.. Basically everything I'll need but the cheaper the better ... I'll be mainly be playing world of warcraft doing some minor photo editing... Basic use outside of gaimg.. From what I read WOW doesn't need much to play at its best level, but I'd like to have a computer that will have room for future upgrades and be able to play other games... I've been screwing around on newegg.com and taking recomendations from this website but I have no clue guys... I would so much appreciate some help from you guys for something will be solid and full proof... I know it takes time to make a nice list of parts that all work together and believe me, I would totally try harder if i had more knowledge on this subject... Just don't want you to think i'm being lazy lol... Well thanks guys and if ya need any advise on a building project i'd love to help

Total = $1043 - $60 MIR's = $983!! Obviously you can get a smaller LCD to lower the price more. Everything here is all that you'd need to build your PC. Gators at $756 w/shipping and was still lacking an OS, Monitor, and Case so he's going to be over the $1000 mark. Everyone has preferrences, so pick out the ones you like and make up your preferred build.

Edit: Went over budget, so I adjusted a few things and also forgot a HD

Even a better deal if you get the x2 5400+ Black Edition CPU from AMD!!! You basically get the CPU thrown in!!! All you have to do is get a $25 CPU HSF and your good with that setup. Otherwise the CPU/PSU/Case Combo for $152 - $50 MIR = $102 for all 3!!!! Can't beat that right now, should've looked at this combo before!!

Another question... Would this setup also play games such as COD4 or crysis?or is that asking for to much... I mean I know I want a pc over geared for wow.. But also would like it to be flexible towards other games I'd like to eventually try out. thanks again guys...

Yeah, you should be able to run Crysis on High with that. Since your monitor is 1680 x 1050 you may want to lower some of the settings to medium during some parts of the game. By the way you forgot to include a motherboard! I say go with a P45 base board like this one.

For a budget build though I would say go with a AMD Phenom X3 and a 790X crossfire board, or a 770 based board if you only planed to use one graphics card.

Wopps sorry guys.. I added the motherboard that lunyone and dirtmountain recomended...

Everything you selected in the last build is fine and will work together. One thing you might want to consider, is a headset. I use one, so other people don't hear the game noise and I also use the microphone attached to talk to people in game!!! I'd much rather use a head set than speakers and a seperate mic.
If you want to save a bundle and still have a decent rig, I'd go with the Antec Sonata III Case/PSU/AMD x2 5400+ Black Edition combo for $152 - $50 MIR = $102, like I mentioned earlier. Yes the AMD isn't quite as good as the e8500 you selected, but for bascially FREE, you can't complain. This would save you $165 on the CPU alone (need to add $26 CPU HSF to the package). You can decide, but if your budget is pretty tight, than I'd opt for the AMD x2 5400+ Black Edition. You'll just need to buy the combo by 9/19 to get the deal!

Edit: Forgot to mention that you'll need a different motherboard, if you decide to go with the AMD CPU chip.
$100 AMD mobo, has just about everything you'll need too Has latest chipset, which will support the upcoming Phenom FX chip!!
