I am Looking to Buy a New computer. I want it for the sole purpose of Playing World of Warcraft and Warcraft .. online Blizzard games.

I Know im getting a Athlon. Probably in the range of a 2600-2800. Which is best?

As for the video card i am wondering if there is a Gforce that will adequatly run these games ro do i ahve to go with the Radeon 9800 pro? Is the 9600 with 256mb better than the 9800 with 128? I need alota help with video card selection.

Im thinkin i should be safe with 512ddr memory.

Do i need a hard drive? What about CD-rw and all that how many drives do i need? Is a DVD drive better? Nessecary?

Im going to go to a Build yoru own PC website ... can anyone refer me to a good cheap one that will get me an adequate system with monitor and all for a lil under 1000$?

Please Email me at kjs21@pitt.edu if you can answer any of my questions or be of any assistance. Thanks.:eek:

switch the 2700 out with 3200 ram and buy a sonata you'll get a good case/good psu too.
