Don't worry. Just inform Nigel of your budget, needs (usage) and wants (the i5 8GB RAM). He can advise and do for you accordingly.

Better than you kena shortchanged by **** shops or Fuwell selling you their slow moving parts in their "bundle package" deals.

Nice, I see other questions here which is great.

Just wanted to check if it is possible to play say WoW with no graphics card, i.e. using the CPU's first. I do not expect to play at high resolution, just low/medium is ok for me.

Reason is to wait for the 11 series to be launched while I could start using the PC.

Thanks.

I don't think WoW can run with Intel UHD Graphics as I checked with Game Debate. The experience is not favourable. After seeing NVIDIA RTX 20 series launch, I suggest you can proceed to buy the GTX 10 series instead of waiting, but up to you lar.

If you are talking about the integrated Intel HD Graphics 630, you can still play WoW under low settings, but the particle effects will slow down the game tremendously.

I have started WoW with a 5 years old non-gaming laptop. Perhaps the laptop has an Nvidia GO card, but I have no clue how this stacks up against the integrated Intel Graphics. If the laptop is still inferior, I have no issue. Though I have not reached the crowded area yet and am still leveling in less densely populated zones.

Ikigai, what exactly is this 'particle effect'? Can it be disabled?

I do not intend to get the RTX 20 series, but I am only hopeful that the 10 series will drop price after the sale of the RTX 20 series next month. But there is no indication of reduction in price, I may just proceed to getting one of the 10 series card. What best suits a $600 budget for GPU with the PC set up above?

When you see those fire, explosions or magic spells, those are contents with particle effects and you can try turning off some of them.

A GTX 1070 is between $600 to $700 now, or you can top up a bit more for the Ti version.

See thread about building PC, go in, wanted to give a comment, see "no O/c, no fancy cooling", nothing to comment.

Just pick the cheapest or suit your eyes the most. Not much diff between the brands also.

By the way, if you want to buy from Tradepac, bargain with them , I repeat bargain with them. Usually you can around $200 cheaper than their quoted prices for whole set <-- Trust me on this, I change PC components every 6-8 months and usually will get from them.

Sorry to disappoint you d3adc3II

Also to ask, is there a reason to go for ATX compared to M-ATX motherboards?

Since I kinda like the NZXT H400i casing, which only supports M-ATX motherboards.
