    Default Thoughts on this build?

    It's getting to be time to upgrade. My current computer (AMD FX8320, Radeon 7800 series GFX w/2gb gddr5, 16gb ram) can run 5x accounts, all on low @ 16fps in Dalaran @ 1080p - If I bump the main screen up to ultra...1 FPS! :P I can run a solo toon in Dalaran on ultra @ ~20fps.

    I recently built my wife a new computer - driven by an i5 - 7600k and a RX480 4g. When I load my team up on her computer - it runs all 5 on low at around 70 FPS in Dalaran - If I bump the main screen to - ultra 30fps @ 1080p. It runs the cpu @ around 80% and pegs the gfx card to 100%, and utilizes around 60%+ of the available memory (16gb.) The 30 FPS in town was fairly smooth, but it doesn't leave much overhead for quality recording @ ultra.

    I'm pretty happy with how her computer has been running and I will probably stay with intel for my PC. Even with the release of ryzen.

    With the release of ryzen intel has cut their prices on a large number of their CPU's, and I anticipate that with the announcement of the 1080ti coming soon, there might be a reduction in price on the original 1080's.

    So...

    Here's the build that I was thinking of using.

    With this computer, I would expect that it would run circles around my current build, and run a touch smoother than my wife's computer does in high pop areas. Hoping to do some decent quality recordings so I can get back to posting cool stuff on youtube. Definitely looking to record on ultra at 1080p with better than 20fps.

    I could def. use some input from those of you that know more :P
