I am looking for a computer under or around $800. I play World of Warcraft, Minecraft, and maybe Battlefield 3 in the future.

Approximate Purchase Date: January 17

Budget Range: $600-$800

System Usage from Most to Least Important: Gaming, Video Editing, Surfing the Internet.

Parts Not Required: Keyboard, Mouse, and I'll maybe buy Monitor separately.

Preferred Website(s) for Parts: Newegg

Country: United States

Parts Preferences: None

Overclocking: No

SLI or Crossfire: Maybe

Monitor Resolution: 1920x1080

Additional Comments: Quiet computer. If you include monitor, I will raise price range to $1000. Also needs winows 7 home premium. Blue LED's would nice.

Cyberpower is not a good brand. Stick with building one - it's not that hard and you'll get a far better system out of it.

Try this build:

CPU's come with a heatsink and fan . You dont NEED to buy another one , but aftermarket models with larger fans and more fins cool better and run quieter .
Overclockers should use better heatsinks
