so basicly what i want to do is build a gaming pc for around 6-800 dollar range, basicly the only game i play on pc is world of warcraft so thats the target graphics im going for. i read the stickies and they all tell u hardware and actually list off all the parts u need and where to get them such as newegg, but when u go to new egg the items have been deactivated, so i was wondering if someone could make an updated list for me for all that would be needed, just hardware, i already have software taken care of, thanks alot! hopefully i hear from u guys soon

Do you mean a complete computer build, such as the case, the PSU, mobo and everything?

I don`t think you`re going to need a too powerful CPU if you`re only going to play WoW, so I`d go with this CPU.

CPU: http://www.newegg.ca/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16819115052
Mobo: http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16813128345
PSU: http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16817371007
RAM: http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16820231122
CASE: http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16811147001
HD: http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16822148294
GRAPHIC CARD: http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.as...eon%20HD%204850
CD: http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.as...%2bR%20DL%2022X

It`s going to come to 691.92$ US. I`m not sure about the case though, so take some else`s advice for it.

I'm here to learn, embrace knowledge and improve.

thnx alot for the list, but yea complete build so that works out, i really dont play to many fps such as call of duty or farcry on pc so that wont be an issue, my biggest problem is just not really knowing wut fits with wut well, but thank you so much for putting it out for me

You're very welcome sir, and I hope everything turns out well and works perfectly for you. I built my cousin the same computer, and he's more than happy.

Congrats!

got it all together, and it powers up, but the fan on the cpu dosnt turn on for some reason... its hooked up to the mother board in the correct slot, is this normal? not sure if maybe the cpu fan has a sensor to where it only turns on after it gets hot or what

It may only turn on once the CPU warms up.
