Build for WoW (Yeah,seriously)

Guest

One of my friends asked me to prepare a system for him. He'll play only World of Warcraft and I don't know anything about Wow so I'm asking you guys.

 

I need a really good price-performance PC that won't cost too much.

He wants to play on 1080p and max settings.

I’d personally go with a Ryzen 5 1600, I’ve had trouble with anything 4 threads or less in anything newer than 2005 or so.

Newer Kaby I5s are defo a good choice if you like team blue. And older K ones should make up in clockspeed what they can’t in cores.

Turkey, budget isn't decided. Actually he can buy the best parts but he doesn't need and doesn't want to. 

 

Only looking for the case and hardware inside it right now.

I don't blame him for not wanting the best since he's only playing WOW.

Like i said, the newest i5 or ryzen 5 1600 for the cpu.

Then Gpu grab a 1060gtx or rx580 if he can get it at same price.

 

Everything else is just grab the cheapest you can find at that point.

No, don't do that. Get a decent non-exploding PSU

1060 ı 6gb yap kardeş ya da 1050 ti da kal - ryzen 1400 ya da 1600 iş görür - ryzen alacaksan ram i yüksek frekanslı al 3000mhz yeterli olur
