Im buying the following PC tomorrow to be able to run World of Warcraft: The Burning Crusade at maxed out settings including AA if possible. (http://www.worldofwarcraft.com/burningcrusade/) What i have so far: Case ( Nzxt Apollo Gaming Tower Case w/420W Power Supply Black ) Case Lighting ( Neon Light Blue ) Power Supply ( Thermaltake Purepower 700 Watt Power Supply [SLI Ready] ) Processor ( Intel Core 2 Duo Processor E6400 (2x 2.13GHz/2MB L2 Cache/1066FSB) ) Processor Cooling ( [New !!!] Liquid CPU Cooling Fan System Kit --- [for INTEL CPU] ) Motherboard ( Asus P5N-E SLI nForce® 650i SLI Chipset w/6-channel CODEC, Gb LAN, S-ATA Raid, USB 2.0, IEEE-1394 Dual PCI-E MB ) Memory ( 1024MB [512MB X2] DDR2-800 PC6400 Memory Module Corsair XMS2 Xtreme w/Heat Spreader ) Video Card ( 2x NVIDIA GeForce 7600GT 256MB w/DVI + TV Out Video ) Hard Drive ( 320 GB HARD DRIVE [Serial-ATA-II, 3Gb, 7200 RPM, 16M Cache] ) CD/DVD Drive ( 16x DVD-ROM Drive Black ) CD-RW/DVD-RW Drive ( 16X Dual Format/Double Layer DVD±R/±RW + CD-R/RW Drive Black ) Would the 2x7600GTs with 256 be better or worse then say 1x7950GT with 512 ram? any other tips and hints would be apprciated the system is currently at $1800 shipped with no monitor :) p.s. the liquid cooling is free and would not change the price if i remove it :D

You are better off going one better graphics card than the two 7600GT's. Also Its probably not worth bothering with watercooling, Core 2 Duos run fairly cool with their stock heatsink and fan even after some decent overcloking.

What site are you getting this from...ibuypower or cyberpower? Either one of them charges $54 for liquid cooling which IMO is unnecessary. The XMS2 RAM is unnecessary as well. It's probably just a listing mistake, but there is no 700W PSU in the PurePower series...it's apparently a ToughPower unit. Supposedly that motherboard is very sensitive about RAM timing & RAM overclocking, so be aware of that if you run into stability issues. http://www.anandtech.com/mb/showdoc... http://techgage.com/article/asus_p5... One 7950GT is better than 2 x 7600GT.

The neon lights will definately boost your performance!! LOL Seriously, save some money by getting rid of the lights, not so crazy thermal solution, and you dont need a 700 watt power supply. Too many people think more watts the better. A 550 or 600 watt antec true power would be way more then enough. Then with the extra money you save, get another gig of ram. My 2 cents. Good luck!
