How to choose a motherboard and graphics card?
I'm building my own pc for games like world of warcraft and starwars the old republic. I'm having trouble picking a motherboard and graphics card. I'm probably either going to use a i5 2500k or i7 2600k processor. My budget is $1000ish for the whole pc so the motherboard and graphics card can't be too expensive. I only want to have 8gbs of ram but room to upgrade in the future. Any advice?

I just bought the i5 2500K and built this. Lovin' it. :)

A top-of-the-line graphics card is easy to spot. It has lots of memory and a fast processor. Often, it's also more visually appealing than anything else that's intended to go inside a computer's case. Lots of high-performance video cards are illustrated or have decorative fans or heat sinks.

All info are terribly wrong.

I heard about Asus mother board where you can operate you games easily.

^^ Asus, MSI, AsRock and lately Gigabyte have touch bios. If you are talking about that, then :unsure:
Although if youare talking about ROG motherboards, then oh yes!! they are the best & beast. ;) But they will burn a big hole in your pocket.
