HI! I'm new to Tech-Forums and new to anything "Tech" related. I've had a mediocre PC that runs games like WoW at medium performance and even that might be a stretch. The point is, it is completely outdated. A Pentium 4, virus infected, crusty old pile of crap.
First, let me explain what I already have. Mouse, monitor, keyboard and headset are a check.
...Next, let me explain what I want and my budget.
My New-PC Requirements:
--Run any game on the market without a hiccup
--Play Blu-Ray movies
--Burn and store many movies
--General document work like word, excel
My Budget:
$1200-1500 US Dollars
So, is this realistic?
NOW I'd like to post what I've chosen and I have a few questions regarding these parts and the computer as a whole.

*********IF YOU WANT TO GET TO THE POINT********
>>>>I think those are all the components necessary. Here are my overall concerns and why I need you tech-genius' in the first place!
-Do all of these components fit together?
-Are they compatible with that case?
-Are these sufficient with high performance gaming and BluRay?
-..If not, what should I upgrade?
-Should I downgrade anything? I don't do any photoshop or any fancy advanced art "stuff"!
--PLEASE any other comments would greatly help!! If you have any questions for me I will answer promptly.
Thank you SOOOO much in advance!!!
