Hello guys i dont know anything about building pc and what determines speed and other stuff. I have been always buying dell computer because i dont do hardcore gaming. I play a 2d game called tibia website is tibia.com. On my current pc which is very old i can run one client wit ease and use my bot to play for me while im busy with school stuff. But everytime i try to run a second client and try to bot it both clients mess up. Many of the other botters are easily able to bot like 6-8 clients at the same time. I want to be able to do this and when i asked them about it they told me i need a new pc. I was about to buy another dell but one of my friends told me about newegg and tigerdirect and told me to build my own pc. This is my first built and im very new to building computer i really need a lot of help.

I do not need to play any of the new games that will come out later. Computer will be on 15 hrs a day. I am looking for a case with alot of led lights. I dont need a monitor.i just want to be able to run 6-8 clients of that 2d game. I will be afk from the computer most of the time. Thx for the help.

The cheaper the computer is the better. Will buy in september or october.

The new XFX Pro650 Core (the one you linked) isn't modular, although the M12II spicy_benie linked is. They're only separated by about $5 each way, so if modular's what he wants, the M12II will do just fine. If he'd rather have more energy headroom, the XFX will be great as well. Otherwise, +1 to spicy_benie's list.

Thanks for all the replys.
From microcenter i can get this Intel
Core i7 3820 LGA 2011 Boxed Processor for 229.99 is it a better processor than the first suggested?
+ i think i will wait for the rosewill throne case it has alot of led lighting. I need something that will stand out

No, just go with 3570k the only thing that you will benifit with i7 will be hyperthreading and that can indeed slow gaming down, but will improve video editing and then you still need a different mobo which will cost more...

I'd at least get your CPU and mobo from Microcenter. When you buy the 3570K, they take $50 your mobo. Which is an amazing deal. And yes, the 3820 is mediocre. Great proccessor if you need i7 power on the cheap, but the 3570K is on par with it in gaming. And the socket 2011 mobo's are expensive compared to 1155.

I would say buy your hdd though, because if you wait and use your old hdd then load times are going to be super slow and your os will be onit and you will need to do a fresh install of windows when you get your new hdd, but if you are really hard pressed on money i guess and +1 to what obsama said
