Could you tell us your monitor size?
For MMO's, a quadcore would be best. Edited by Tyler Lowe - 03 Sep 2008 at 1:36am |

I plan on using a 22' moniter hopefully with a 2MS response. I saw a Samsung that I liked.
Upgraded the CPU to the Q9550, price went to $1846.00 is that still reasonable for the system? Matt |

No, I was going to go a little cheaper with this one.

Yep, reasonable. I would do an X48 Mobo, and see if a 1KW PSU is still within budget. The X48 will overclock a quad alot better. A 1KW PSU would allow you to go crossfireX later on if you wanted. Neither is really neccesary to do what you want to do, just allows for a little better performance straight away, and easier upgrading in the future.
