Hi, new to these forums. As the title says, I am building a new computer. I decided I would put my money into an SSD and Vid Card instead of a super 8 core processor that I will never really benefit from. (feel free to correct me if i'm wrong) But, i do not think I will get any signifigant performance boost from going crazy with a processor. I play a 2D MMO game, surf the web and watch videos. Sometimes I'll play starcraft2 and The Old Republic.. But not very often.
I do not see how spending $100 - $200 more for a 4 - 8 core processor would make much sense to me.
Anyway, here is my future build and I would greatly appreciate any constructive feedback. (I will most likely wait for the prices to drop a bit more before buying)
