   Looking for help for build. I mostly play everquest 1, everquest 2, World of Warcraft, and hopeing to get a pc that will run Warhammer Online when it comes out in few months I think if its not pushed back again. My budget for a computer isnt much $1000-1200 and I have a monitor already and keyboard and mouse. I am scared of Vista (heard to many bad things about it). I think I am goina have to stick with Xp. Any ideas on a build that would suit me? I am not that good with computers any help would be appreciated. Also I plan on buying within the next month or so. Thanks in advance. Sorry if bad grammer.

	This is the best I could come up with for a $1,000-$1,200 request. My advice: Put another 1-3 months of saving for a closer to $1,500 rig. For your games mentioned, really your biggest investment needs to be in the GPU.
