Im prolly going to be building a new comp soon and was wondering if the hardware I am going to use will allow me to run WoW at max quality at 1280x1024 res with reasonable fram rates (during average gameplay). Hardware is as follows.
Gigabyte GA-965P-DS3 mobo
BFG Geforce 7600GT 256 MB PCI-e video
Core 2 Duo E6600 proc (I might overclock a little bit, nothing too big)
2 gigs of Corsair XMS2 DDR2 675 MHz memory (In dual channel)
WD Raptor 150 GB 10K rpm SATA 150 hard drive

Any recomendations on any hardware changes would be appreciated, This comp will prolly be running vista home premium, so I might need a slightly beefier video card, but thats what im here to find out :)

well The graphics card is certainly the weakest part of the entire system. See if you can bump that up to a 7900gt. Or if you want to go big, look into the 8 series.
 
that pc will run WoW perfectly. if you had the same pc, and you would put a 6600GT in it, it would still run maxed out really good. WoW dosnt put much load onto the grafic's card,.. its mainly a CPU/RAM thing :)
 
Thx for the info guys, ill be looking around for a better graphics card, but i am limited in my budget so its not going to be a 8800 lol, but when/if nvida does come out with some 8200-8600, GPUs ill definatly buy one!
