Going to pirate iPC. I will be playing WoW on the Mac OS because of a program (not an addon, a program) that helps me play WoW that is only designed for the Mac OS. So, for now it will be primarily used for WoW. Any suggestions on different Mac OSs will be greatly appreciated.

I may downgrade the GPU, but I like that this computer is future proofed for other programs I may need it for such as CAD.

Please comment on anything, except the speakers cuz they light up. I think I can get better ones in the future or maybe take my Dell surround sound from my old computer.

Thank you,
Evan

Looks pretty good.

I would suggest keeping the 5850 if you can...I run at 25-30fps in Dalaran with a 5870 on Ultra at 1920x1200. Everywhere else is higher, obviously, but in 10-man raids, I'm getting between 50-60fps on Ultra, the 5850 will be below that, and a 5830 or 5770 will be even lower.
