New to custom building
I already showed this to a friend who is pretty good with computers since I'm kind of new to actually building a PC and this might seem really basic (looking at some of the other computer builds I've seen here so far). I want to build a PC for gaming, nothing too hardcore but World of Warcraft at max settings hitting 60fps would be nice. I was wondering if I could get any input on the Newegg build I made. I was also wondering about overclocking it to 3.0GHz because the CPU page had a comment saying people took it to like 3.6GHz. I've never overclocked but how much of a difference would it be taking it from 2.4GHz to 3.0GHz? As in would I notice a difference when I play WoW, listen to music, browse the internet, and whatever else going from 2.4 to 3.0
__________________Link: http://secure.newegg.com/WishList/Pu...umber=10218672 Any comments or suggestions for it would be nice, my price range is probably $700-800 or maybe a little over. Thanks to anyone in advance that can help  .

Change the 9800 for the + version: http://www.newegg.com/Product/Produc...82E16814150314
Get a different PSU, 31A on the 12+ is a little iffy: http://www.newegg.com/Product/Produc...82E16817103940 The PSU is the MOST important part of a PC. You will end up paying twice if you buy a low quality or a weak one vs buying a good one.

Hellspawn or Hell's Pawn?

For WoW it's overkill. A dual core and low-profile card would be plenty. You sure you won't be playing any other more graphically intensive game? If not you could probably build a 450$ rig that would play it well.

No.. I like his build. I do agree its overkill but its better to have more line on your POLE instead of not enough.
