Hardware suggestions

ARGTheTank, on Jun 17 2015 - 14:07, said: Hello all,   I am going to build a pc for my son's 9th birthday next month.  He mainly plays XBox games but he likes to play WoT with his older brother.  My older son has a gaming pc that runs 50-60 fps on a 47" 1080p screen.  My younger sons experience on our 4 year old mid-level laptop, is not quite the same.   So, dad to the rescue (Hopefully).  I can pick out all of the peripherals, monitor and more basic hardware.  I would like to get suggestions for the cpu, motherboard, ram and video card.  I do not really have a budget limit.  However, keep in mind that this will likely only be used for WoT for several years.  In another 5 or so years, I can see him getting into more heavy pc gaming.  At which point I would upgrade whatever necessary to get the pc up to high performance specs.  So, though I do not have a budget limit, I do not want to throw money away for performance I will not need on this build, and therefore will not use by the time it is several years old (Outdated), that will end up being upgraded when the time comes anyway.  Thank you in advance for your suggestions.   Also, does anyone have experience playing WoT on Linux?  A friend of mine is trying to tell me that is the way to go.  I did a quick google search and see that people do play on a Linux OS.  Just wanted to get feedback from anyone who actually does.   Thank you again.
