ok cool that will save me a couple of bucks by getting rid of that.
Some more of my concerns
1. cables needed?
2.Keep current motherboard or upgrade?
3.How well will this pc run FFxiv or warhammer 2? or can i not even tell yet?
1. When you buy everything, the motherboard, casing, and power supply should come with the cables you need
2. After looking at the specs, for gaming purposes I think that this motherboard will work fine for you.
3. Here are the minimum system requirements for Final Fantasy XIV, along with what your system will have once it is built -
CPU Speed
Minimum : Intel Core 2 Duo (2.0 GHz) / AMD Athlon X2 (2.0 GHz)
You will have: AMD Phenom II X2 @ 3.2ghz, meaning you exceed the minimum requirement for your CPU
RAM
Minimum: Windows XP: 1.5 GB or Windows Vista/7: 2.0 GB
You will have: 4GB, meaning you exceed the RAM requirement
OS
Minimum: Windows XP SP3 or Windows Vista 32-bit/64-bit or Windows 7 32-bit/64-bit
You will have: Windows 7 Home Premium 64-bit, meaning you meet this requirement. There really is no way to exceed this requirement so don't worry about it lol.
Video Card
Minimum: 512 MB NVIDIA GeForce 9600 series / ATI Radeon HD 2900 series or equivalent
You will have: Radeon 5750 1GB GDDR5 Graphics card, meaning you exceed the requirement for your video card.

In summary, you will be able to play final fantasy xiv, and you will be able to play it smoothly. When I have some time I will edit this and add the minimum requirements for warhammer 2.
