I have been looking at desktop computers, specifically gaming computers, on which to run AoC, since my laptop just can't handle it. I need to keep my laptop for school however, and it seems building a gaming desktop myself would be the best bang for my buck, so to speak... So, could anyone recommend what parts to get? Which motherboard, how much RAM, which video cards, etc. I should get, considering I want to spend only about $800 but I want the game to run very smoothly on medium-high graphics.Any suggestions for the best and most wallet-friendly parts would be very much appreciated! Thanks!
