I know most of it is irrelevant but I didn't want to miss anything. So how would this handle lower end games like wow, and higher end games like Crysis?
Thanks a ton,

my dad might know someone who can help, but i dont think i'd be able to handle building my own

i dont know, looks pretty complicated. my only thing is if you make one tiny mistake, the comp wont work or worse, will get messed up.
 
yeah true. i dont know, maybe ill try doing it myself. right now my budget is $600, but if i wait a month or so, that can shoot up to $1,000
