Posted a while back and now have some funds, how is this build will I be able to play WoW at 1080p and possible some FPS games?

Can it be done cheaper? Originally had ideas on a i5 2500K but its coming in quite expensive!

bare in mind my current desktop is an Xp3000 and nvidia 6800!!

ta

a few quid saved, its higher specced than my original post back in April but I will assume this would play most games inc WoW at 1920x1200? Going to reuse my Antec Sonata case, albeit showing its age but I assume all will fit in ok?

Hmm just read reviews and googled the board for CPU support and it would seem the CPU I have chosen is not supported? Hmm...

It will easily play WOW at that res, the gear will fit in the case.

And the board does support the CPU - http://uk.asus.com/Motherboards/AMD_AM3/M4A78LTM/#CPUS
