So I recently returned to World of Warcraft to play Legion - My goal WAS to play wow on the highest UBER cray settings available on some sort of really nice monitor (I currently have an iMac 27'' Retina (fully upgraded everything)... I have an iMac and honestly the iMac does ALRIGHT but, as much as I enjoy it as my work desktop.. I knew I needed to buy a desktop but, I held off until my old one was returned to me by my ex.
MY GOAL: I would like to be able to do a 25 man raid on the highest settings possible above 50-60fps
WHAT I NEED HELP WITH: I have the computer I built in 2010 that I just got back (Exact Components below) - I need to know if any parts of this thing are usable? I know it's 6 years old.. and computers components have a lifespan... SO, I NEED A BUILD capable of handling wow at 50-60 fps on highest setting in a 25 man raid (budget is $1500 and I need an OS, I also have the components below)
MOBO: Asus 890gx
PSU: Thermaltake 800w
HD:Seagate 7200.12 640gb
GPU: Xfx Radeon 5870
CPU: And 955 (at 3.4 now and stable)
Case: Haf 922
Cooling: Thermaltake CPU cooler (I think, I wanted the corsair h50 but, it was sold out at the time)
RAM: 8gb g.skill at 1800 (this needs to be upgraded
OS: Windows 7 (I forgot the password, so...)
400fg to the best one.
