Additional Comments:
This is my first time attemp at a build, please be kind . I'm currently running on a system from bought in 2002 (eek!!) So I'm a bit behind on the tech curve. I'd be happy to get a system in my price range that can handle MMO games well. Let's face it, anything is better than what I currently have at this moment.
I'm currently looking at an AMD Phenom X4 955 BE, along with a Geforce GTX 460 1GB. Started there and trying to work out from that start point. (Not sure if I'm aiming too high to start with or not.) Any input would be appreciated.
