Would this make for a good computer to run games like World of warcraft on maxed out settings while still getting 60fps? Doesn’t necessarily have to be maxed out but at least close. I have the monitor, keyboard, and mouse. All I need is the case and everything inside. Am I missing anything?

You'll either want a DDR3 Mobo or you'll have to change the RAM to DDR2. I would switch to a full size ATX DDR3 mobo and drop the onboard graphics as well:

GIGABYTE GA-MA770T-UD3P AM3 AMD 770 ATX AMD

Next, switch out the PSU for one of these:
Antec EA650 650W Continuous Power ATX12V Ver.2.2 / EPS12V version 2.91 SLI Certified CrossFire Ready 80 PLUS Certified Active PFC

Finally, to answer your questions correctly (FPS etc.) we'll need your monitor resolution at minimum:

What resolution are you running at?
You have to use DDR2 ram for that board, and i would steer clear of that PSU, try to get one from corsair, antec, seasonic, PC power & cooling, or OCZ

Similar sized case, higher quality PSU.

first of all thank you for the advice.

secondly, i forgot to add the resolution.
i was wanting to play on 1920 X 1080 resolution.

Here is a good combo with the Antec 300 and Antec EA650... http://www.newegg.com/Product/ComboDealDetails.aspx?ItemList=Combo.232779

The rest of jbakerlent's and hunter315's comments are good.

hope this link works, its the shopping cart with all my items. dont worry im not logged in so there is no personal info showing.

same question 1920 X 1080 resolution and maxed out settings or close to maxed out settings with close to 60 fps in world of warcraft. will this computer do it? also how would it fair with something like call of duty 4?

 

[jbakerlent]

Empty?

 

[tecmo34]

All I saw was an empty cart...

Please repost with the actual products & links... Thanks

 

[ninjadan69]

i figured the cart would not be viewable for anyone else but it was worth a try. ok here we go again.

Everything looks good except... You should've went with my combo ... Just joking... Okay the truth, you are missing a HSF in your build. If you don't plan on overclocking you'll be okay, but if you are, you will need one.

This system should have no problems with the games you listed you play.

 

[ninjadan69]

awesome. i think im almost there lol. again guys thank you very much for your selfless giving.

since im a real noob at computers i really dont know anything at all whatsoever about overclocking. so i most likely will not overclock anything, but, just in case, what is HSF?

and one last little question. do you guys think this computer will be future proofed at all? like when next gen MMO's come out will i be able to run those on medium settings or higher on 1920 X 1080 with a good fps?

 

[jbakerlent]

HSF = Heatsink Fan (CPU cooler)

Your system is future proof in the sense it is upgradeable down the road... If games don't perform as you want, swap out CPU's for a x4 965 for quad-core power... Or switch GPU's to DX11 cards down the road. I think the most you can hope for in a build is an upgrade path, which is "future proofing" the system. You have done that with your build... IMO

Agreed.
