The original post did. I don't actually have the iso because I just upgraded, and that thread explains a few different ways I can actually get a bootable disk (usb or dvd).
I did the online upgrade from Windows 7 to Windows 8. Everything went great. I've recently ordered new internals for my PC and will need to re-install Windows 8. I didn't download an iso that I can flash to a USB key, as most articles online are suggesting I do.
How can I, from a Windows 8...
Looking for a core upgrade for gaming (SWTOR, Diablo 3, BF3). My current set up:
* Core 2 Duo 3ghz
* Gigabyte (http://www.newegg.com/Product/Produc...82E16813128358)
* (2) 4 GB DDR2 (http://www.newegg.com/Product/Produc...82E16820145215)

I'm planning to buy an i5 (I think the 2500?) and I'm looking for a motherboard, prefer one that I can get at Best Buy (yay gift cards). Any suggestions?
Thanks for the info, I'll upgrade and see how it goes.
Somewhat related, has there been any spec info on Diablo 3? I'm wondering if my system will stand up to that game as well. Perhaps I need to start planning some upgrades...
Sorry, I should have included that. I play with all the settings on low (defaulted that way for me) and at 1920x1200 (sometimes in windowed mode, other in full screen). I'll try lower resolutions, hadn't really considered that. I have drivers from August or so, last time I tried to update...
I started playing Star Wars recently and I'm getting pretty poor FPS (~10-20 indoors). I know a lot of people are experiencing similar issues, but I also know some with better hardware are getting great performance. I've read that Star Wars is a heavily GPU dependent game, so my first thought...
I have a Logitech MX 5500 keyboard and mouse and an Apple Cinema (DVI) that I'd like to be able to share between my Windows 7 desktop and an older Linux server that I run from time to time. About 10 years ago I had a KVM switch that worked OK but couldn't handle USB (the dongle for the MX 5500...
How does this look:

If I can keep it below $1,000, I'm happy. The key for me is completely maxed settings. I want to see as far as I can, with every spell detail. I've never been able to see that with my current setup.
It's been a very long time since I've looked at building a computer. I'm a Mac person and have enjoyed those for the last few years. I'm a big WoW player and have been playing on my work laptop, a MacBook Pro for the last 7+ months. It's not an ideal experience as I essentially must keep...
