Budget: $260, before any rebates, including shipping.
USAGE FROM MOST TO LEAST IMPORTANT: Blizzard IPs (fanboy for years, sue me!) followed by occasional FPS games.
CURRENT GPU AND POWER SUPPLY: Integrated Graphics card (HD 4250), Thermaltake 850W.
OTHER RELEVANT SYSTEM SPECS: AMD Phenom II x4 955, 4 GB DDR3 1333
PREFERRED WEBSITE(S) FOR PARTS: Newegg.com (but not required)
