Hello,
My friend got a new computer and gave me his old one. I'm able to spend around $200 or so a month over the next couple months on upgrades. I'd prefer to keep the total upgrades under $1,000 but willing to spend more if necessary. I'm willing to save some to buy better stuff as well. I'm looking to play WoW and similar games on High (and eventually Ultra) settings at 1080p. Basically what needs to be upgraded, and what is the most important to upgrade first. Here's the build:
