2 build options for gaming

[sabin1269]

Honestly I would prefer the first due to my budget, I would like to stay around 1000 max with everything and maybe a monitor included. The second one I posted before but I would like some people who know more about this stuff to take a look at it and see if my cheaper build could be done for cheaper and what changes might be better to make. In reality I just want something that can run WoW and Diablo 3 on max settings and to handle some of the newer games that are coming out that are not going to be super graphics intensive.

maybe if these two list could be combined that would be great to make something powerful, yet inexpensive. I'm not looking for the next super gaming machine, just something to get me by for the next few years with few problems. I would like to keep either motherboard though just for future expa

By the way, you might want to put it into pc part picker instead. Since in order to view that wishlist, you have to log into Newegg.
http://pcpartpicker.com/

With that website you don't have to log into it to see or use it.

You can still buy your parts from newegg even if you use that site to display it.

WoW and Diablo 3 are pretty easy to max out, with a $1000 depending on what parts you actually need that to cover, you should have no problem building a system that could take on the most hardcore of games on the market today.. Those 2 games, are not among them lol. But yea, your wishlists links are dead ends.

Monitors can eat up a fairly large chunk of your budget, depending on how extreme you want to go with that.. For example, the monitor in my sig is a behemoth, and it was around $300. But not everyone needs to go that extreme. You definitely should consider a 1080p HD monitor if you're still running VGA though. But certainly there are more reasonably sized monitors at lower costs.

Might I suggest you pop on over to the "Homebuilt" section with this thread? Its not in the right place and mods may lock it for that reason.
