    that good a cpu isn't needed to run those games...well WOW im not too sure about, might be a good idea, but halo has very low requirements, my PC runs it very well at 1024x768 on all high settings with the highest aa and af i could set it too...still around like 35fps...

    just to give u an idea of what is required for that game. but WOW i have no idea what the requirements are, is it even out yet?

    Abe, I don't think the 64-bit chip is any advantage in the gaming you plan on ( although I would like one myself), so you could save some money on the CPU and put it towards a better vidcard and PSU.

    I see, well surely you will want a new video card to play that then. Sometime before doom3 and halflife 2 come out i will be buying a new video card as well, probably a 9600xt or a 9800pro or something that will be around 200canadian at that time...

    Well done.
    So you've changed the CPU, the video and the HDD.

    Which case did you decide on?
