After building a pc for my buddy, now another one wants one. He will mostly be using it for WOW, SC2 and probably other games as well, also Light homework. This is what I came up with, what do you think? Please any info would be helpful, thanks. I have to get all the parts from Memoryexpress.com, please keep that in mind, thanks.

If you only want a micro-ATX board,then P7H55-M is fine but if you want an ATX model,then consider
P7P55D-E
Other specs look great.

Hmm just WOW/SC2 no extreme CPU intensive stuff i would say u would be more than ably served with a $800ish rig?

If u think that board is too spartan $30 top up nabs ya a bundle with MSI 870A-G54 for ATX/USB/SATA 3.0

Memoryexpress.com matches prices, so thank you. I am thinking of maybe going for a i3 540, but just don't really know a good MOBO to get with it. ANy suggestions. Is the ATi 6950 overkill for his needs?

Hi OP, was that graphic card unlockable? sorry for bringing back the dead.
