Hi lads(/lasses)

About to invest in a new computer at the start of next week and I know you see a million spec me threads, but i was hoping for a bit of leniency and advice!

The computer will be used almost entirely to play WoW..however when the next battlefield comes out I'll no doubt pick that up as well.

With this in mind what are we looking at? I was thinking overclocked I 560/4-8gb 1600ram/gtx 460.

Is that reasonable? I am also really contemplating a SSD for boot and whichever game I'm primarily playing at the time. Will I notice an improvement with regards game loading etc, and would a 60GB be enough for Windows/Wow/any basic programs?

I did try asking the question on the official game forums, however it was a waste of 5 minutes of my life, hoping i will fair better here!
 
Do you have a budget in mind?

I sue a 60gb SSD for Windows and some programs with 30gb ~ left, the rest are on a 1tb Samsung Drive.

4gb will be fine, AMD & Intel will be launching new cpu's in the new year, not sure when though.
