Need a $1500.00 build for maxing WoW:: Legion.

I have a 27inch iMac 5k late 2015 model with 32gb of RAM but, it doesn't handle WoW as well as I would like it to.. I'm wondering if there's a build I can do to beat the iMac for around $1500. I am also looking to buy a really nice wide screen monitor and id like to to keep the total around $2500 (there's $500 of wiggle room).

PAYING 400fg to chosen njc
Stipulation: I need to build it today....I can't wait. I have a
Fry's Electronic's and Best Buy near me as well as Amazon Prime NOW. Currently that leaves me with 3 options:

ZIP CODE: 92707

So plz build with the stipulation and top build gets 400fg

Ghot... did you even read his post? He needs to buy the parts and build it today. No shipping allowed.

E: Not to mention he wanted $1500 or less. Your post is literally useless. lol

Maybe you should read his post. Can't build a great computer from just Fry's. As for today...he can use expedited shipping.

It's really hard to go from being a MAC user to a Windows PC. Things like I want it ...today...just don't work on a Windows PC. Well if you want a good one, that is.

As for the PC it is very near $1500...The monitor, ofc, uses the rest. :)


The OP is coming from a....

I'm not gonna be the one to disappoint him. ^^





Wouldn't want a MAC person to be disappointed with a Windows PC, would ya. :)



At OP, you can easily substitute a GTX 1070 for the GTX 1080, for the games you're playing you won't notice any difference. Still, a great video card though...

GTX 1080 vs. GTX 1070...note the resolutions in these benchmarks...

/e Still...no charge. :)














/ee On top of everything else...he's in SoCal, so he probably has a Newegg somewhere in the neighborhood...too. :)

Yep, 40 miles North-ish.


/eee Just tried to build at Fry's, 3rd part on the list, the motherboard...nope. :(

That's an awesome build. You will be very happy.
With either the GTX 1080 or the GTX 1070.


/e Also, just so you know...Newegg isn't like Fry's. They have warehouses all over the country.
Going into the Newegg near you...may speed up the order processing, but you still won't get it today.

Check also for Micro Center near you...they ARE like Fry's.


/ee Unfortunately, unlike MACs, Windows PC's don't come per-assembled. Well, they can, but you will be paying almost twice what they are worth. And you won't have too much control over the quality of the parts.

PC's are easy to build, just a phillips head screwdriver.
If you run into any difficulties, we are always here. With the motherboard manual and the video above...just about anyone can build it.



If you really want it built by someone else... NICXUS will do it for an extra $50...however they won't have a lot of the parts in stock.

PCpartpicker, is good in that it will find the lowest prices from any etailer, automatically.

You can just click Edit this List at the top right, and then click the little gear symbol right after the item price, and it will let you choose the seller.



/e Here is the original build...all from Newegg, cept the monitor, which Newegg doesn't have...

http://pcpartpicker.com/list/XZxk9W <--- GTX 1080 build.

http://pcpartpicker.com/list/b7Y8r7 <--- GTX 1070 build.

GTX 1080 vs. GTX 1070 comparison...note the resolutions for the benchmarks. These two vid cards are the fastest there is atm. Cept for the Geforce TitanX for minimum of $1200

http://www.anandtech.com/bench/product/1731?vs=1714




Still, no charge. I just want you to get a good computer, and be happy with it. ^^
