Hi everyone,
I'm looking forward to building my first PC. I have been reviewing the site for advise and this is what I plan on piecing together within a month with a budget of around $900. The primary use is for MMOs (SWTOR, LOTRO) and potentially arkham city and so on. Also, should I replace the HDD with an SDD. Any help is appreciated. Thanks!
