Rather wait for Intel Skylake, AMD Pirate Islands and Windows 10 in August all together if possible.

Hi, games i mostly play are WoW, call of duty and dota2. Planning on buying more FPS games in the future...

Hey Jian19, thanks for the recommendation! Will make a trip down to see. How well does the gfx card support the aforementioned games?

Must use this sentence for every rig recommendation thread already. I think people are better off holding off this August for all these new components. I know I am!

Lol, wonder how long Skylake will take to reach SG after Aug release? Maybe Nov/Dec?

Hi guys, the new parts coming out seem tempting but my pc just died.... hahaha!

My budget can be adjusted to 2k if need be..

Close off Hardware Clinic until Skylake reach SG
