Looking to build a powerful PC for under $1500. I play mmorpgs (WoW, DAoC) and online FPS's. Please leave any suggestions for motherboards, processors, video cards, and anything else that will allow me to play online games at a high quality level. I want to get the most power and quality for my money, thanks in advance for the suggestions!
 
look at my signature on the bottom. it has some stuff that i am getting right now (im spending 1800 but some of it you definitely might find useful at ur budget, and u play WoW???? are you on the stormreaver server?, if so, what is ur name? (im jaktheripper) im on horde.
 
What I would get. I put togther pretty fast. Total cost is about 1433 no mointor nor keyboard or mouse. However if you do get a moitor get a good one. You could also go with a gefroce 6800 GT and get the rest.
