CPU+ Mobo: MSI B85-G41 PC MATE + i5 4460 (357)
RAM: G.SKILL RIPJAWS-X 1600MHZ ( 4GBx2pcs ) CL9 (115)
GPU: ZOTAC GTX 970 4GB TWIN FAN (509)
HDD: TOSHIBA 1TB 7200RPM (69)

PSU: SEASONIC S12G-Non MODULAR 550W (105)
Case: CORSAIR 200R (85)

Total cost: $1390

Buy at PC Themes, #04-15, and ask for discounts. DIY yourself. If you can't into DIY, get PC Themes to assemble for you for a fee.

Notes:

1) Most MMORPGs are not very CPU and GPU intensive. This build is capable of playing most MMORPGs at 50-60 FPS at max settings in 1440p.

Why not just choose Superflower HX600w? Also ard same price... Only diff is that it is semi modular and its 600w which is more than enough for 970.
