[sneakypants]

my cousin told me she'll return it and because she lives a really busy life and i mean busy she said she'll come out and take the computer back for a return and
buy me a new one of my choice. so guys let me hear some suggestions i would say around 700-800 computer that can play counter-strike source,WoW, and the upcoming WARHAMMER ONLINE AGE OF RECKONING =)

If you are willing to build it yourself you could get a pretty good system for $700-800.

are you gonna oc? if so...how much? just a simple oc to like 3ghz, or go crazy mad with voltaage?
i would suggest the ds3l over that board since its waay better.
and the reason i chose clubit is cos it was cheaper.
And then ram i suggested is like the ballistix but has led...plus it was on sale for a great price.

i want to stick to one place so that i dont have to wait for 2 different shipments just 1 all together. i went with the q6600 and your gigabyte mobo,ram, and hdd. I just need now a gfx and casing.

 

[sneakypants]

im thinking of using a 500w power supply incase i need a little more voltage.

 

[krazyq]

get the cooler master 690 case and the corsair 520hx psu ...and the 9600gt.
