Hello,

I am wondering if this build is compatible.
http://pcpartpicker.com/p/2NSJh

I am planning on using this computer to play games such as WoW, BF4, and SC2. Can someone please look it over and let me know if this build could in fact run these games at ultra settings. Im not very smart about computers so if you could explain why something is not worth the money or why i should get something better please let me know.

PS: if you suggest a build for me, my budget is 1300-1500$$.

Thank you in advance.

No need to be rude. What's wrong with the PSU. It's still under budget and can fit in an SSD. I see that you put in the Kingston 120GB SSD which is the cheap end of the stick. I'd at least recommend going up the the Samsung EVO 120GB. Also I am not sure if he really liked the case or if it was ok to change it out for a different one so I could have saved money there like you by swapping to a mid tower.

In my opinion, not being rude but they are both bad beacuse of the psu. The psu is probably the main part of your build. If your psu dies, you build dies with it. So my build is the perfect build for the money and also I forgot to do this but I meant to change my psu to this one instead ------>http://pcpartpicker.com/part/xfx-power-supply-p1850bbefx

The ssd is basically for the os and the most important games that you play. An ssd is important because it will give you faster boot times for os and everything. Also since you have a budget like yours, fitting an ssd into the budget isnt that hard.

XFX makes some of the best quality psu. Ask SR71 Blackbird on this forum if you dont believe me. He is a psu EXPERT EXPERT. True about the ssd but I like kingston more because its been in the business longer. Wow thanks for the link, I didnt even know there was an ssd boss. But yeah the samsung is faster but in every other concept they are fairly similar. Plus the kingston is cheaper.

Ok you could just add one. Its 80 bucks. Even though my build will be more expensive than yours, its still worth more then yours because my psu will still be better. Like I said before, if the psu is dead, the build is dead.

There we go. Now thats better. Also for the case, I would get the Rosewill Blackhawk because the cooling is really good and is a really nice case. Or you could get the source 210 elite from nzxt

Cases are tough because, design is opinion based. Of course we would look for wire management, vent openings and fan support but there are just so many out there its hard to pick for someone.
