That's an excellent gaming PC, those are really good specs. If you haven't purchased it yet there are a few recommendations 1. Processor - Since you told that you know nothing about PCs, I assume you also don't know about overclocking, overclocking means, making your components run faster than they were meant to, when they were manufactured, it gives a good performance boost, but I think its not worth it, because first of all, it voids your products warranty, and there's this risk of damaging the parts.
In the specs you have given, you can see that the processor is "Intel Core i5 2500K 3.30GHz (Sandy Bridge) Socket LGA1155" the "K" next to i5 2500, tells us that the processor is free to overclock, assuming that you do not want to overclock, you can get the Intel Core i5 2500, you may notice that there's no "K", in this processor's name, its overall the same processor, but with overclocking disabled, so its recommended to either get this processor, or this one Intel Core i7 2600 3.4GHz (Sandy Bridge) Socket LGA 1155, it should be at least 25% faster than the i5 2500. And another thing, the graphics card, instead of getting the HD 6950, you can take Nvidia GeForce GTX 570, it comes at the same price, but is better than 6950. Other than that its a great gaming PC.
I cant really gove you an answer,but what I can give you is a way to a solution, that is you have to find the anglde that you relate to or peaks your interest. A good paper is one that people get drawn into because it reaches them ln some way.As for me WW11 to me, I think of the holocaust and the effect it had on the survivors, their families and those who stood by and did nothing until it was too late.
