Hi, i haven't built a desktop computer since Pentium III was released.
Basically, my laptop isn't cutting it for playing WoW (which is currently the only game i play). I want to build a desktop that'll improve the game's performance in Dalaran. I also plan on getting Starcraft II, Diablo III, etc.
Can someone tell me if this is a decent build and any suggestions on how much memory/brand of memory i would need?
PSU: CORSAIR CMPSU-750TX 750W - $110
CPU: i5-661 Clarkdale 3.33Ghz 87W - $200
Heatsink: ZALMAN CNPS10X QUIET - $58
Motherboard: Gigabyte GA-P55A-UD4P - $185
Video: 2 X SAPPHIRE 100282SR Radeon HD 5850 - $660
Case: Haf922 - $90
Hard Drive: WD Caviar Black 750GB 7200 - $80
Memory: ?
Optical Drive: SAMSUNG Black 22X... - $20
Also, what are the benefits of having a Crossfire 5850 setup over a 5870?
Any help/suggestions you could give me would be great!
