Hello all! I've built my last several gaming PCs, but this go around, I'd like to try a pre-built for the ease and warranty aspects. Currently looking at DS & Falcon-Northwest. Looking for my main SSD to house the OS, WoW, & SC2. Don't really want liquid-cooling... Any comments are appreciated. Thank you in advance!
