For MMOs the most important part is the CPU, so you have to avoid AMD and go with Intel i7. The 4770k will do.

What about GPU? The other components doesnt matter at all.

Yeah, that is what I am asking.
What GPU do you recommend for this type? Not too pricy but willing to spend $200 - $300

Also looking for reasonable RAM and a Motherboard.

AMD R9 280X goes for 300-330

ram: cheapest one, minimum 8gb, max 16gb

motherboard: any Z87, depends on your budget

Did you already buy it?

Change that Graphics Card to a 280, from what I've been told you wont 256 bit cards won't even fully use 4GB.
Don't buy that power supply, you can get a cheaper one. Even with overclocking you're not going to use 750w so it's a waste of money which can be spent on a better graphics card.

Get this power supply
Get this graphics card

Thanks. I'll change it up. :)
Edit : The power supply I am getting costs the same as the one you linked
(After I apply a promo and rebate)

    @SylverReZ, I also heard one of the Prince of Persia games was so unfinished that it required the "24/7 online" drm so a puzzle could be done and the game could be finished. And that when the Ubisoft servers were closed the (cracked) game was impossible to finish or something like that
  • SylverReZ @ SylverReZ:
    @Xdqwerty, That's extra scummy. Ubisoft nowadays ship out incomplete games like Skull and Bones which was being worked on for nearly a decade now.

    I like that games can be fixed after the fact, hate that it's being abused via beta tests... And DLC... I was a 7800 owner back in the day and loved Impossible Mission, turns out I couldn't beat it because it was actually impossible lol

    I never knew about it at the time but a fixed version was available but you had to mail in your broken copy lol
