Hi all, i recently bought a radeon 5750 gpu,600w psu & it fried my comp so im having to buy a new one.

My budget is between 500-700$, i do not need anything but the rig.

I do not have the new gpu/psu anymore i returned it.

I am not very computer savy that's why im asking here before i get ripped off

Im using the Comp for mainly WoW which id like to play on ultra or high. and some other games aswell, thanks in advance. im desperate here!
 
after doing further research im just going to build my own. No interest in giving a company tons of money for little performance
 
What country are you located in? There is members from all over the world and they will help you pick parts.
 
I would look at an AMD / ATI setup. You can get hardware for good prices. I don't know too much about AMD / ATI so I cannot give that great of advice....but have a look at these.

I might consider an AMD Athlon II triple core processor. It is AM3 socket and runs at 3.2GHz...it will run WoW with ease. Here is one for $80.

A nice Asus or Gigabyte AM3 socket motherboard would be just fine.

Here is some good Corsair DDR3 RAM for $50...an amazing deal. It even has a $10 MIR that drops the price to $40. :D

Here is a 600w Corsair power supply for $65...it also has a $10 MIR that makes it $55.

Here is I think a nice system all you need to do is pick out what kind of case you would like for it.

This could probably be customized to be a little better especially the GPU I havent been keeping up with technology for the past year but I think this a well rounded system and with a little overclocking could be a great system.
 
do you have anything left over from the other tower?
hdd
case
anything?
is so what? (model # etc.)

EDIT x2: os ? can you wait for rebates or do you want it to be 5-700 out the door?
