Hey guys, I've been using this Dell Dimension E310 for a bit now. I've recently started getting into this online MMO game World of Warcraft. Although, in order for me to play that game, I have to put my graphics to all the way low. I'm planning on upgrading this "badboy" to play WoW to its highest graphics.
So....
~ Do I have a chance with this computer to run the game on max graphics, with a high frame rate?
~ Would I be better off to buy another computer?
Below you'll see my dxdiag, and WoW game specs:

I'm not sure which card to buy. I'm wondering if someone can link me to the best possible card that would operate with my PC. Also, would I need more RAM to increase the frame rate in the game?
