Hey guys I've been frequenting these forums now for the past 4 months and I've been inspired to build my first PC.
Figured I'd assemble a build and ask this helpful community for some advice. This PC will be used primarily for games
of the MMO persuasion. SWTOR, Diablo3, GW2. Later I plan to delve into music production down the road. So Here
is what I got so far, any help/tips are greatly appreciated
