I am looking to buy a desktop computer for Graduate School this year and would like the opinion of some fellow gamers. I'm looking for a setup that can run WoW pretty much maxed out on Ultra and that can also handle other work related programs such as AutoCad, ArcGIS, etc. I have decided that I will purchasing a Dell and I have found what appears to be a good candidate for a new desktop. It is a tower, monitor, keyboard, and mouse combo package available through Costco. I will however be upgrading the factory keyboard/mouse to a Razer Anansi keyboard and Razer Naga Epic mouse. I would very much appreciate any input regarding my proposed setup and whether it would work well with WoW on Ultra.
The package can be found at Costco.com and here is the link:

At night, Wrench went to the main event, at Bilgewater Harbor. "Attention, everyone," the spokesman started. "Tonight, we will need a volunteer for the first act that this mage will be doing!" Wrench raised his hand so high, wanting to be picked. "How about the fabulous goblin over there!" the spokesman pointed at Wrench. Wrench was excited as he stepped on stage. "What is your name?" the Spokesman asked. "Name's Wrench." Wrench replied. "Good to know. For the main event, this goblin will be part of a magic trick! Bring out the mage!" The mage stepped out behind the curtains. The mage performs a strange spell and made Wrench vanish into the Twisting Nether. "Woah, did you see that?!" the Spokesman said, excitingly. "That is it for the mage magic trick! Thank you for coming!" Wrench's whereabouts are unknown, but what will come of him will may not be safe, for his days.
The End
