Specs:

EVGA GTX 260 - GPU

Dual Core E7200 - CPU

EVGA Nforce 750i - Mobo

Raidmax Hybrid 730W - PSU

4Gs - RAM

Running on Window Vista 32 bit.

I know that Crysis is "The" game to push your rig to the fullest but I never liked it much so I do not think I'm going to purchase it. I'm getting Farcry 2 which from what I hear is just like Crysis so I can push it on that game. Really I want a good RTS game to push this rig on, I got Medieval Total War 2 which I know this should beat the socks off of it. I need this thing to run Star Craft 2 and Total War Empire when they come out, at about 1920x1200 res.

Know of any games to push my rig please tell me.

Drop the 4gbs of ram to 2gbs, drop the water cooler, get a thermaltake 120 extreme cooler for the cpu, and get an arctic cooling s1 rev 2 for your 9800gt, your all set.Gamerkat

If I took out the water cooling system could I still overclock? I read some where that water cooling is where it's at if your looking to overclock.

Looking for a somewhat cheap gaming rig that can run WoW at maxing setting and also the console commands at around 60 fps. I'm going to be purchasing off of neweggs, since they seem to have the lowest prices. (Anyone knows of a better, cheaper, more reliable site I would love to know) I gotta a price range of about 800 bucks at the moment, but I will be adding onto a little here and a little there after I got the base build. Such as an extra graphic card and such. Anyone can help me out here, I would really appreciate it.

Thanks in advance.
