so it wont play games... cause i bought world of warcraft cause my old comp sucked it lagged hard... what would i need to get to make it a good game comp
 
Exactly, i havent played WOW, but i hear you need at least 1 gig of ram for it not to lag, and also a better video card is need, your stretching it with the one thats there. Still you got a good buy for the price. Hell, you could have spent 2000 dollars building one, but you didn't.

i know comps cost alot... but luckly i found a little thing called ebay... they sell really cheap on there this one even came with a 17" flat screen monitor
 
Hmm... if you are considering to buy the video card that Hollisbrown gave you, I would consider buying an X800 instead. A good version of the X800 would probably cost a little more, but well worth it. Make sure that the RAM you buy is supported by your motherboard.
