Parts/Purchase recommendation

I want to run WoW at 100+ fps “and maintain at least 60 fps in raids/BGs” on high-level graphics settings at 1440p. I admittedly know little about specs and don’t know what would be adequate, what would be weak, and what would be overkill. I was hoping I could get some recommendations on parts or a pre-built from someone that knows more than I do, or someone that’s getting these results that would share their build.

Thank you!

What you need for your desired goal

  • Intel i9 10900k OC to 5.1/5.2 or i7 10700k OC to 5.1/5.0
  • 4000mhz Ram or faster
  • RtX 3070 or better or RTX 2080 Super
  • 850w power Supply

OR

  • Ryzen 5 5600x or Ryzen 7 5800x (don’t overclock leave it stock)
  • 3600mhz CL16 Ram or 3800mhz CL17
  • RTX 3070 or RTX 2080 Super
  • 750w power supply

Your frames per second will be through the roof. There also really isn’t a game you couldn’t play at Max settings with either configuration

If you don’t know a lot about building computers and your going pre-built select the components I listed above at ibuypower .com or cyberpower .com or NZXT .com. All those sites do pre-built systems and let you select the components. If you use one of those sites go with an Asus or MSI Motherboard.

I personally really do not like going pre-built but understand why people do. If people didn’t I wouldn’t have a job because I build gaming rigs for a living.

Here is the performance you can expect in raids

Unless you get lucky with a new 3060ti and are okay with older Intel parts, it’s kind of a bad time. Pretty much everything is low stock and overpriced right now.

Or consider a pre-built I suppose.

This is another thing to keep in mind however if he’s not buying the components himself and is going prebuilt? most of the custom PC Builder websites that I listed have these hard to get components in stock

Way ahead of you lol see above
