New PC Mainly for Rift

[bezekielg]

Hey all! First post here and I'm just trying to get a check on my build that should be able to run Rift as well as most games out right now (As well as the next year or two at least). I've been stalking these forums as well as other ones like it for the past few months and I think it's finally time for me to take the plunge. I've never built a computer before but I think I'll be able to figure it out. My budget is around 1500. Let me know what you think (if it's all compatible, if it'll run like I want it to, etc.)! Thanks so much!

your links are all messed up. try to just copy and paste them directly.

you may want to consider an after market cpu cooler.

So, I'm not sure if I'm double-posting or not, and apologies if I am, but my posts aren't showing up. Anyway, if this one shows up, the links are fixed and do you suggest a specific after-market cpu cooler?

No, your posts were automatically moderated due to them containing links. it sometimes takes a little bit before we can get to them.
