You never said what resolution your monitor is but I assume 1920X1200
probably..
ASUS M4A89GTD PRO/USB3
AMD Phenom II X4 970 (3.5 GHz)
Corsair H50 Water Cooler
G.Skill Ripjaws DDR3 1600 (4x4)
Nvidia GTX460 1 Gig Video Card
or AMD HD 5770 Crossfire setup
OCZ Agility 2 SSD (Sandforce 1200 controller)
Seasonic 500-600 Modular PSU
Any questions?

Hello THG,
The time has come. On December 7, 2010 WoW Cataclysm will be
gloriously released to the masses. Now, I must construct a new game
system. The last few times I have built systems for myself, I have
found great advice here on the list and so I am here again.
While the requirements and suggestions have not been released to the
actual system specs, I already know what I need to do...
- One step down from the best CPU possible (AMD or Intel).
- Minimum 4GB RAM.
- One step down from best video card available (ATI or nVidia).
- SSD x 2 (Intel was best last I knew?).
- Motherboard to handle all this.
- Power supply that is appropriate.
I don't care about noise. I want the best bang for my buck.
I can handle the rest. Suggestions please?
