Re: Need New Rig help, 1st custom build

Many of the parts you posted are low quality or somewhat outdated.

This system is considerably faster, and will run all current games and is somewhat excessive for WoW imo. You could upgrade the video to an 4870, but that was pushing your budget a little. The onboard sound on this motherboard will be very comparable to the soundcard you posted, upgrading the sound would not be worth it unless you were getting an xtreme gamer card.
