£500 WoW Build

Terk · 27 May 2019 at 10:10

Hey guys and gals,

With the onset of WoW Classic I need a new build that will keep happy whilst isolating myself from society - £500 budget should probably do it? I do not need an SSD or hard drive since I have a spare one.

Cheers

You’d be better off starting from scratch when you get there.

Yeah I have a LG 27UD68 so that would be 60hz

I have keyboard, monitor etc. just need the rig - can exclude case from price as well.

what form factor are you after? tower style case (atx) or smaller and compact (itx)?

Oh interesting, didn't think of this - I think ITX actually might be a good idea since I move around often.

ITX has the benefit of wifi built in normally but board costs a bit more

I think thats fine anyway - my budget is 'flexible', but I just don't see the point of spending right now a lot of money on a build that I want mostly for WoW, although I would definitely like to leave it open to upgrades in the future so I wouldn't want to skimp out on a motherboard.
