Hi,

I want to build my own gaming computer. This will be my first build. . It will mostly be used for World Of Warcraft. I know I want a desktop. What parts do you recommend(processor, graphic card,ram,motherboard,etc)? I will need a complete system. What is the difference between dual or single graphic cards? For a first build should I go with water cooled or fan cooled system?
 
FREE SHIPPING for this entire build.
