    Gaming build for WOW

    Hey, i'm looking to build a computer to run WOW with fairly high graphics settings (Doesn't have to be max settings). The computer is not for me, and i don't play the game, so i'm asking for advice here. I'd like to stay under 1000, but the cheaper the better. Maybe i can downgrade the cpu...
