Hey, I've been off the pc train for years and don't really know much about them anymore.

My question is, for about 600-1000$ what can I get that is good enough to play mmorpg games.


I'd like to get the best out there but at the same time I don't mind settling for second best.

Please help me out!

the absolute best out there for mmo's is going to be an oc'd i5-8600k or an i7-8700k with hyper threading disabled, for the highest single thread performance.
because some mmo's actually lose performance with smt and none that I can think of at least even need more than 3-4 cores, most use 2, consider the extra cores gravy.

gpu is much less important but i wouldn't recommend anything slower than a 1050 ti

That's 300+ dollars more then my max. I'd rather be around 800-900 then close to 1400 lmfao
