Asking for a friend and this forum (especially kingarthur) has been rock solid when i built my last PC. my buddy needs recommendation for computer w/ monitor and OS all in for around 750. needs to run WoW, but doesnt need to be all the latest hardware - just reliable. I dont trust myself enough to build a PC and find the better value in parts, so I am here again. Any suggestions?

R3 with WoW will be a big problem. WoW loves high single threaded IPC

Other than that, other parts look really nice
