So I REALLY REALLY hate arguing with people and this person is under my skin.  He's giving terrible advice, making outlandish claims and is trashing my idea's.  I made a very rude response but I need help on this one: http://us.battle.net/wow/en/forum/topic/10161136506?page=1#19.  His name is heretic btw, he is advising a 700 dollar HP (refurbished) is a good buy and the PC I linked which cost less than that was junk.

My PC: CPU: I7-2600K CPU Cooler: Cooler Master Evo, Mother Board: MSI Z77 Mpower, Ram: 4x4GB DDR3 1600MHz CL9 Corsair Vengeance (Black), Case: HAF 932, PSU: CM GX 650 (Upgrading to RM750 soon), SSD: Samsung 840 Pro 120GB SSD, HD:  750GB Seagate 7200 RPM, Optical: Samsung Blu-ray burner, GPU: MSI GTX 560 TI Twin Frozr (Upgrading to an HD R9-290X on launch)

It's a battle.net link so I don't bother try and read it because it's most likely you getting pissed off at a troll on the wow forum. It's like arguing with a wall...

The needless bickering is pointless.

 

Some people just don't get it and you need to walk away.

 

Posting about it here is only feeding a second set of trolls.

 

Yes you're right, his claims are a bit outlandish but, as a wise friend used to tell me at a different forum:

 

You can lead a horse to water but, you can't make him drink.

In my experience, piling "BUILD YOUR PC AND SAVE YOUR WALLET" onto someone who hasn't done it before drives them away. It's usually best to say there are benefits to building your own and you can guide them in the right direction if they're interested, but if they're going to listen to some guy on bnet tell them to buy an HP, there's nothing you can do and you really shouldn't waste your time.

That wasn't my worry.  My worry is, this guy recommends a refurbished HP to someone and claims it plays skyrim on max settings with 120 fps, the person will be disappointed when he buys that HP.  There are other solutions, we need this poster to talk to us more.

Ah I see then... my post is basically irrelevant. I probably should have paid more attention to the bnet thread....

he bought an Hp with an I7 and an HD 7770 and while that's a terribly unbalanced PC it has a little power.  But if that other kid bought that PC and tried to stream 25 man raids on it @ 1080p @ ultra, he will get 5 FPS...
